Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Just an update on the case referred to here: Judgment was due to be delivered in the Commercial Court on Friday March 4th, but the case has been adjourned to Wednesday, March 9th next. It's an incredibly important case, because it could spell the demise of the Irish Coursing Club, the body responsible for a "sport" that Australia, Britain, and Northern Ireland have banned.
To put the status of Ireland's hare coursing fraternity in perspective: Recently, after men were convicted of coursing-related offences in Britain, the judge not only imposed fines but also ordered the crushing of their vehicles...
Here in Ireland, the police direct traffic outside hare coursing events, while the cruelty proceeds inside!
A hare is tossed about for "sport" at a major Irish coursing event
A greyhound has the blood washed from its mouth after the dying hare has been removed for finishing off...
are going to use pictures of coursing events,how about mentioning that those pics are as old as the Hills as the dogs are muzzled here in Ireland and have been for ages??
do yourselves no favours by using emotive langauge and implying this is an everyday occurance.
The pictures cannot be so old, the dogs are in fact muzzled, one has slipped its muzzle to savage the hare and the "tossed" hare has been struck by a muzzle, such strikes are not uncommon and result in severe injuries to hares. The sooner this so called "sport" is banned, the better. It sickens me , open courses are held every year here in the valley in which I live, right after mass on a Sunday. Who was it who said something about judging a country by the way it treats its weakest and most vulnerable, including its animals? Hmmm........ seems this country has a lot of catching up to do.
