The average deer hunt lasts for three hours.

How long does a drag hunt last?

As there are no long periods spent 'casting' or looking for a live quarry, drag hunts usually last about three hours. Bloodhound packs hunt 'man-made' scent and follow the scent of a runner or the 'clean boot'.

What do they do with the fox after the hunt?

The hunt continues until either the fox evades the hounds, goes to ground (that is takes refuge in a burrow or den) or is overtaken and usually killed by the hounds. In the case of Scottish hill packs or the gun packs of Wales and upland areas of England, the fox is flushed to guns.
