Replication For Hunting of Live Animals
Neither drag hunting nor trail hunting involve the hunting of live animals, and as such are suitable for jurisdictions where sports, such as fox hunting, have been banned.
Because of some controversy over trail hunts potentially being fronts for illegal hunting, and to avoid confusion, the Masters of the Draghounds and Bloodhounds Association in the UK has vigorously asserted its rights to the term "drag hunting" or "draghunting". The Masters of the Foxhounds Association has complied with their wishes, and generally uses the term "trail hunting" for the legal activities of its members.

Famous quotes containing the words hunting, live and/or animals:
“The French manner of hunting is gentlemanlike; ours is only for bumpkins and bodies. The poor beasts here are pursued and run down by much greater beasts than themselves; and the true British fox-hunter is most undoubtedly a species appropriated and peculiar to this country, which no other part of the globe produces.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“Twenty years ago I wanted to move to a nice place so our Charley would grow up a nice boy and learn a profession. But instead we live in a jungle, so he can only be a wild animal. D’you think I picked the East Side like Columbus picked America?”
—Abraham Polonsky (b. 1910)
“Of all animals the boy is the most unmanageable, inasmuch as he has the fountain of reason in him not yet regulated.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
