Western Mail: Hunting ban `is a rural disaster'
The year-old ban on fox hunting in Scotland has cost jobs, lost tourism business, has become a legal minefield for farmers, and has adversely affected fox welfare. Before the law, the fit fox more often than not always got away and it was the infirm or old fox who was caught. Now the law requires that all flushed foxes must be shot regardless of age or fitness.
