Really....
And what would cause you to say that? The 'burgermeat' reference? For the record, I do not think that foxes literally turn into beef-burgers during pursuit; if you prefer, I'll refer to the phenomenon as 'chronic rupture of muscle fibres' instead. I didn't think that was worth labouring unduly, but there's always someone ready to raise the bar on conspicuous stupidity.

As for the more general point of massive muscle damage and subsequent death by cardiopulmonary hemorrhage - this has been repeatedly documented during autopsies on post-hunt fox corpses.

why use all those words
when you could have just typed "I'm an obnoxious cunt" and saved everyone some time?

Principally, because they don't mean the same thing
furthermore, I couldn't give a tuppeny fuck for your opinion, given that it managed to change from "I’m a bit ambivalent about fox hunting" to "I find fox hunting appalling" in the space a few minutes. You've clearly given the matter a lot of thought...

Still - carry on 'defining who you are as an individual', and be sure not to let random messageboards decide your opinion for you.

ha! you've done it again,..
yes you got me, I was arsing around on the ambivalent post. Why are you so angry with people who don't toe your line? Being right doesn't mean you have a "behave like a cunt pass"

By the way, what's the evidence for the hamburger muscle death thing?

I'm not
but I do tend to have a knee-jerk reaction when accused of being ignorant. Nerd-rage, I suppose. And few people react well to being called an 'obnoxious cunt'.

I'm not saying they necessarily die of direct muscle-hamburgerosis - they can utterly shred their muscle fibres, and can subsequently die from heart/lung hemorrhage, both as a result of stressing their bodies more than they can take.

Evidence? There are a few fox autopsy reports around. Here's one - www.huntinginquiry.gov.uk/mainsections/research/postmortem.htm - haven't checked if it specifically refers to these phenomena, as I'm in the middle of l4d2

I think
If you are a member of a species whose muscles collapse when you run, then you're probably doomed anyway.
