‘Animal Abuser’: Michele Burton, who believes that ‘our journey begins when we respect and honour all life in our shared world’, was filmed kicking one hound and very nearly running over others on Ludlow Hunt last year. Shropshire Hunt Saboteurs were keen to distance themselves from her, describing Burton as an ‘animal abuser’.
Animal Self-Medication: Burton is a keen adherent of Caroline Ingraham’s school of Applied Zoopharmacognosy (animal self-medication), a practice that has been described as ‘dangerous’ and ‘delusional’ by the veterinary world.
