The animal rights group Advocates for Animals is trying to get the hunt banned in the European Court . The group’s campaign director Ross Minnet told the London Independent last Saturday "The brutal and totally unnecessary guga hunt belongs back in the dark ages and has no place in a modern, 21st-century Scotland.
