The RSPCA says it is investigating footage in which a woman is seen kicking and hitting a horse.
The group claimed the video, taken on Saturday afternoon on a Leicestershire road, shows members of the Cottesmore Hunt.A spokesperson added: "The Chairman and Masters want to... assure you that they take a matter such as this very seriously and will deal with it in an appropriate manner.""We will always look into complaints made to us about animal welfare," a spokesperson for the charity added.
One Twitter user, Paul Fitzgerald, wrote: "Absolutely no excuses for this behaviour. I've had horses all my life, this is not acceptable ever." Wildlife expert and broadcaster Chris Packham also called on the RSPCA to "urgently investigate" what he described as "appalling abuse".
