    Episode 40 - Hare Hunting Foot Packs

    What better way to hunt Britain's fastest land mammal than on foot with small hounds? Yet that's what beagle and basset packs do. Fortunately, sabs are also ready to stop them whenever they can. Gizzie spoke with a member of Severn Vale Hunt Saboteurs about hare hunting on foot and what sabbing it looks like today. And there's a brief interlude about so-called 'trap hares'. - A PDF of John Phibbs's Field Sports and Brownian Design can be found here: https://scumremover.files.wordpress.com/2022/06/field-sports-and-brownian-design.pdf - Check out Severn Vale Hunt Saboteurs on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SevernValeSabs/ Closing song is "The Hare's Lament" by Susan McKeown.

    Episode 39 - Citronella

    Helping a fox, hare or deer cover their scent is one of the most basic methods of sabotaging hunting. But there is some skill in choosing when and where to use it. So Gizzie Rascal spoke with former HSA tactics officer Colin Skilton about how to effectively use citronella, both as a pre- and post-spray. There is also a bit of history on the term 'red herring'. - Tactics section of the HSA website: https://www.huntsabs.org.uk/tactics/hsa-tactics/ - Wordhistories.net article on the term red herring: https://wordhistories.net/2017/07/06/red-herring-origin/ Featured image is by Shropshire Hunt Saboteurs. Closing track is "Pigs In a Blanket" by Rudimentary Peni.
