That's the impression that I got from my limited knowledge of fox hunting, that it was more of a class thing than an ethics thing since this doesn't seem to apply to other areas of hunting (though I might be wrong on that). Hunting in general checks the "inhumane" and bloodsport boxes imo.
Plus, I don't know if animals deserve to be treated in a humane manner. There are animale standards that are more suited to their relationship with man.
