TIM Pinney once again tries to desperately imply that the anti-hunt campaigners make things up, (You Say, February 16).

It is irresponsible of bloodsports fanatics to claim that normal dog owners will be prosecuted if their pets - by chance - chase after a wild animal.

The reason why the majority of rural and urban dwellers wish to see the vicious sport of hunting with dogs banned is because we back our claims with scientific evidence, video footage and witness account.

And, as always Mr Pinney, I can substantiate what I state in these columns.
