Fox hunting is illegal in the UK, so the work around is that they lay the scent trail to simulate the fox hunt and then accidentally go off the trail and accidentally end up killing foxes. This is a ruling class hobby so there's no actual enforcement of this ban so often times fox hunters won't even bother with the pretence of following these trails, the trail hunting excuse is just something that is used as part of leveraging the arm of the state against hunt saboteurs.
As for why they're so obsessed with this hyper specific form of animal cruelty:
CW: implied beastiality
They get some sorta sexual pleasure outta it. For example: former prime-minister, Boris Johnson once described the feeling of riding a horse during one of these hunts in an op-ed as "a semi-sexual relation with the horse".Oh I see, thank you, i was thinking if it's just a simulated hunt and the dogs aren't being abused then banning this is some real busybody shit from people who have nothing better to worry about but yeah if it's just in effect a thinly veiled cover to allow for real fox hunting then yeah fuck them, ban this shit
