Between August 2025 and March 2026, campaigners say hunters were seen chasing 55 foxes across the county. In addition to the fox chases, the group recorded 94 incidents of what they term ‘hunt havoc’ in Somerset during the same period. These incidents involve hunting groups disturbing local communities—blocking public roads, trespassing on railway lines, threatening livestock, and sometimes displaying violence towards the public.
