Picture edit

Would it be possible to provide a good kosher photo of a "fox hunt" victim carcass? Also of hounds killed after the season and horses, or facilities used to kill such animals. Thanks. Yogesh Khandke (talk) 14:36, 10 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Quite possibly, but I no longer access to any such photos. MikeHobday (talk) 19:44, 11 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
How do we go forward? The dead fox seems to be the absent referent in the "Fox hunting" article. Yogesh Khandke (talk) 05:14, 13 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
