We sabbed the North Cotswold hunt from Cutsdean in the North Cotswold badger cull zone with freinds from Cirencester Illegal huntwatch. An early morning sett patrol pre hunt led to the discovery that the setts targeted by the cull and then by sett blocking had slowly started to recover, no blocked setts were found by us. An attempt to puncture the tyres of our long suffering Ford focus were thwarted by noticing that something was amiss on return to the car. More on that at a later date…To all sabs and monitors, check before you drive off.

Sadly Nigel Peel let himself down by either not having full control of the pack OR could it possibly be that they chased a fox over the B4077 and into some gardens. Anyway the end result was chaos on the roads as can be seen from this film.
He kept running away from us after that and we don’t think he got much hunting done after using the Heythrop counter sab/monitor tactic of 1. getting stalkers to stick with us and 2 running away if it looks like we are anywhere nearby.
