Sarah Jackson: Christchurch Animal Save organiser 'disturbed' by children parading their kill at North Canterbury hunting competition - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

A group of North Canterbury animal activists experienced a 'disturbing' confrontation during the region's hunting competition.

100 children reportedly showed off their kill while chanting 'meat' and yelling abuse at the group of protestors.

Christchurch Animal Save organiser Sarah Jackson says the scene of children carrying dead animals was 'heartbreaking to see'.

"These children are being raised to think that it's normal and it's okay to commit violence towards animals and that it's actually commendable."
