Duke of Beaufort Hunt were in the village of Sherston on Saturday. You can see the fox flee from the direction of the hounds, only to double back on itself, when they could not escape through Sherston Primary School. In their haste to continue the chase, the supporting members of the hunt, the whipper-in and the quad bikes, raced south through the village of Sherston in the direction of the fox and hounds - towards Widley's.
6 weeks after a quad passenger was killed in Shipton Moyne - where the Beaufort met at Glebe House on that day, 23rd December 2023, they are still racing around illegally 2-up on single seat quads and the police are notable by their indifference and absence. If you live in Sherston, or indeed anywhere the Beaufort are known to menace, and this behaviour concerns you, please do contact your local neighbourhood police team and ask them to stop being so subservient to hunt criminals and do something about the animal abusing sicko's putting you and your kids in danger in your village.
Merry Christmas!
We’d like to thank everyone who has supported us this year, and what a year it has been! But we will write more about that soon.
It’s also been great to work with so many local groups, friendships which are bonded by a shared common goal. A massive thank you to the Hunt Saboteurs Association who have helped us hugely with expensive vehicle repairs.
We hope you all have a peaceful Christmas and a healthy and happy new year. We will be back out on Boxing Day stopping them killing. Please keep those tip offs coming.

Strange to lay a trail here. Landowner told the Beaufort Huntsman off for bringing them onto her newly planted grass field. They ignored her, in pursuit of a fox. Several hunted foxes today, relentless hunting from these criminals. Riding with cops in their pockets of course. Full hit report to follow. #RuralCrime #wiltshire #TrailHuntLies #criminals #beauforthunt https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/wiltshirehuntsabs
Happy Halloween from all of us at Wiltshire Hunt Sabs! Don’t have nightmares now!! (Volume on)
Today at the Beaufort we witnessed so much horse abuse too. State of this, they are truly disgusting people. Can tell the pressure is getting to them.
Beaufort hunt fox to exhaustion trying to shake off sabs.
Beaufort Hunt
Easton Grey, Saturday 21st October.
They relentlessly hunted this poor fox, which gave them the slip at least once. A hunt supporter inadvertently tipped us off a fox was spotted, we just caught a glimpse as they fled into the woods.
Huntsman predictably took the hounds away, and then returned when he thought sabs had gone.
By the the fox had been spotted leaving the woods, but remained close by, fleeing again - exhausted - when the hounds returned.
They are really the most creepy and disturbed individuals, cretins all of them. This snotty smirking Beaufort rider yesterday, illegally using his phone on a horse, weaponising his horse whilst seeing atop looking down on what he sees as the oiks. What century are we in again?
Guess who is in court today! Yes, that's right two of the Avon Vale fox-throwing filth. Send the scum down.

Today we took a day off with all our usual hunts packed up for the season. But as one of our lot was passing through the village of Sherston in North Wiltshire, on personal business, they encountered a bunch of scum vehicles parked up at Widley's Farm which is a prestigious beagle meet in the local area.
Keeping their eyes peeled, they spotted them in the distance on a hare three fields in from the road to the south west of Lordswood Farm.
Unable to do much, and not kitted out for sabbing with access to the usual whips, camera's etc, they reported to police on 999 as a hunting crime in action and police were dispatched. They stayed in the area to keep the police updated to the criminals locations.
Sabs from Salisbury Plain Hunt Sabs, and Three Counties Hunt Saboteurs were in the vicinity, and about 20 mins afterwards the hounds broke out of the field across the road on the same or possibly a second hare. Still no sign of police.
With the hounds on the other side of the road, and the huntman miles away, sab followed the direction of the hounds and pulled into a layby, just about getting out of their car in time to see the dogs in full cry now coursing the hare through a hedgerow.
There wasn't a lot that could be done to stop them at this point, the dogs were totally out of control, and coursing the hare just metres behind, and even when the silly ridiculous little huntsman appeared - making half
Fox and hedgehog enjoying their supper. Lovely video sent in by one of our Facebook followers.
Well done to everyone who took the time to message, email and tweet the wildlife crime-enabling PCC today.
We won't ever stop #MakingWiltshireSafer for our Wildlife!
Hunts claim their hounds are exempt. This is a lie. We will be reporting every single dump a hound takes on public land. It’s an offence under the Dog Fouling of Land Act to not pick up poo on designated land, inc Salisbury Plain.
Once again we are #MakingWiltshireSafer
Illegal quads at the Beaufort Hunt yesterday.
Every single one of these quads broke at least two laws, one of them even had two unrestrained toddlers just propped on where the spade boxes normally are.
All flying around at speed on the public highway, single person quads all overloaded and not properly displaying numbers plates.
Social services as well as Avon and Somerset Police need to take action on all of these.
It should not be forgotten that a year ago to the day, police dedicated over 50 officers and multiple resources, drones, riot vans and even the helicopter to assist the criminal Avon Vale kill foxes.
Multiple wildlife flushed by the hounds as officers assisted hunt scum thugs to block us from rights of way.
They openly have foxhunting police officers who are often tasked with policing the hunt. Wiltshire Police are as bent as it comes.
Who’s hopeful now the Wiltshire Rural Crime Team have an Avon Vale and Beaufort Foxhunter in the team investigating the Avon Vale video?
We sure aren’t!
Demand NO FOXHUNTERS IN THE POLICE.
Protest this Sunday 5th March 1pm. Wiltshire Police HQ, London Road, Devizes. See you there!

Beaufort & Cotswold Hunts Sabbed
On Monday 2nd January we joined other groups to sab a joint meet of the Beaufort and Cotswold hunts at Long Newnton near Tetbury. We saw multiple foxes fleeing for their lives. This video features just one of the foxes we saw throughout the day. It also shows the moment when a Beaufort hunt supporter ran to tell passing terriermen she had seen a fox run across the road and point out the way they had run. We had just sprayed the line this beautiful fox had taken.
Can you imagine the depravity of seeing a scared animal running to save themselves from a horrific death - and telling terriermen the way they had run. The evil in these people never fails to surprise - and horrify us.
