Description |
Scenes from an otter hunt in either Lancashire of Cumbria. Hunters and hunt followers (including small children) are seen with sticks, as hounds chase and catch an otter through a field and across a river. The hunt concludes with the otter's body being thrown to the pack to dismember. The Otter's severed head is then held up in triumph for the camera. |
