Hunting is humane: Wild animals are adapted to hunting by evolution. The flight reaction of the quarry is instinctive and the stress involved is no more than the animal is used to on a daily basis. The kill, if it occurs, is almost instantaneous and above all certain. Hunting leaves no wounded survivors and quarry that evade the hounds rapidly return to normal behaviour.

The CHA's objectives are to ensure:

  • that hunting with dogs remains the natural and most humane method of controlling the four quarry species.


  • that the public perception of hunting is favourable.


  • that the interests of hunts and their followers are safeguarded in the face of political attack.

    • The CHA stands as a central point of contact for the Independent Supervisory Authority for Hunting (ISAH) and works in close conjunction with the Countryside Alliance.
