When you hunt the Belstone Fox ... you hunt HIS way
Tag is a clever fox able to elude the dogs as well as the British hunters who pursue him.

Although the relentless hunt for Tag leads to tragedy, the fox remains steadfast in his determination to stay alive and live free in the English countryside.
