Waveney Harriers hunt fox through garden in Metfield

To the horror of a couple living in Metfield, Suffolk, the Waveney Harriers trespassed on their land in pursuit of a fox on Wednesday (01.03.23). Members of Suffolk Against Fox Hunting (SAFH) spoke to the couple to gather more information. SAFH reported to us that at around 4:30pm the owner of the property heard hounds…More

Leaving Scottow Hall at 11:20, Waveney Harriers huntsman Chris McDaniels led the (North Norfolk Harrier) hounds and field down and across Scottow Rd towards Stake Bridge Beck, where they milled about and practised training ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ hounds to follow a scent laid by Luke Newton on his quad. This was quite contrary to their midweek hunts…More

We headed to Hardingham with Norfolk/Suffolk Hunt Saboteurs (NSHS) to take a look at the soon-to-be-in-court Dunston Harriers. The hunt was dressed to distress in ratcatchers, a stark contrast to the normal scarlet jackets and green helmets. The hunt headed from the meet northwards, and hounds almost immediately started speaking in woods near the Gravel…More

Alongside Norwich Hunt Saboteurs, South Cambs Hunt Saboteurs and Norfolk/Suffolk Hunt Saboteurs our first point of call was dealing with a tip-off for the Saxlingham Green โ€˜Vermin Dayโ€™ shoot. A handful of shots were fired but once they saw us approaching, immediately headed back to Hall Farm. Some sabs kept an eye on them as…More

Day of surprises, this one. We turned up to the Waveney Harriers alongside a person from Norfolk/Suffolk Hunt Saboteurs and riders met us outside the farm to explain theyโ€™d be trail hunting that day. Obviously weโ€™ve heard it all before, so imagine our surprise when they appeared to do just that. Usual huntsman Luke Newton…More

The one thing that sure makes jogging through mud worth it – other than minimising the chance of animals being hunted – is the angry face of huntsman Sean Hutchinson.

Report #015: Suffolk Hunt @ Heath House, Herringswell, 14/01/23

Huntsman Sean Hutchinson left the meet heading south, losing a few hounds amongst Kentford Heath and leaving hunt staff to try and collect them as he continued southwards towards Slade Bottom. There is actually very little to report as at every corner this dribble of ghouls were met by ourselves, Norwich Hunt Saboteurs or Norfolk/Suffolk…More

Report #014: Waveney Harriers @ Northgate Hall, Warham, 07/01/23

The Waveney Harriers met at Northgate Hall, Warham, and set off around 11.30am. We were waiting for them alongside Norfolk/Suffolk Hunt Saboteurs. The hunt and field headed north up onto the marshes and travelled east along the right of way. They then spent several minutes around Warborough Hill, with hounds taking interest in the undergrowth…More
