When you release a pack of dogs to chase down a fox and rip it to shreds, it is not a sport ["Foxhound training preserves: Historic, humane," Jan. 13]. I don't care how wealthy or well-dressed the human participants are. It is a barbaric practice and should be illegal. You can't romanticize animal cruelty.
