Foxes killed: 15000
Human killed in accidents: 3
Pups and hounds killed: 6000
Vet fees for horses: £15 million
Injuries to hounds: 1000
Injuries to those on foot: 500

Policing costs (paid by taxpayers): over £1 million

That's just the grounds, please sign this petition and ban the hounds tearing these animals apart!!
