1. End The Ward Union Carted Stag Hunt 
CARTED STAG HUNTING IS A CRUEL PRACTISE THAT ONLY EXISTS IN IRELAND. DEER USED BY THIS HUNT ARE PURSUED FOR HOURS,GET INJURED, SOMETIMES DIE OF STRESS OR END UP TANGLED IN WIRE. MANY FARMERS AS WELL AS PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THE AREA WANT TO END THIS DUE TO THE ARROGANT NATURE OF THE HUNTERS AND TRESPASS, DAMAGES AND THE DANGEROUS NATURE OF THE HUNT. THE WARD UNION HUNT CLUB CART A DEER TO AN AREA AND CHASE IT WITH A PACK OF HOUNDS TWICE A WEEK FOR 6 MONTHS OF THE YEAR. THIS TAKES PLACE IN COUNTY MEATH, IRELAND.
There is only one such hunt that exists. We ask the Environment Minister to amend the Wildlife act to end this barbaric so called practise.the majority of Irish people want it ended. It exists purely to entertain the Ward Union hunt Clubs approximately 200 members and serves no other purpose.
Minister Gormley, keep your pre-election promise and amend the Wildlife Act to end this barbarity.
