Dozens of pets and farm animals including cats, dogs, horses, donkeys and alpacas were chased or attacked by hound packs in the most recent hunting season, anti-hunt campaigners say.
They also harassed sheep, pheasants and reindeer, according to an analysis of reports by anti-hunt organisation Protect the Wild. In all, 89 domestic and farm animals in 10 months were said to have been caused distress by hunt hounds.
