Prodigy frontman Keith Flint has admitted to "riding with the local trail hunt", and now Anonymous are out to get him.

According to t he Hunting Act, trail hunting doesn't involve killing animals. However, some critics believe that hunters use trail hunting as a cover-up for illegal hunts.

Flint relayed a message via the rave-rock band's Facebook page after rumours began circling of his involvement with foxhunting:

Message from Keef Flint: 'In regards to a story going around about me right now - yes I live in essex and have a couple of horses. I went riding with the local trail hunt, it was a ride out and NO ANIMALS WERE HUNTED OR KILLED, so my conscience is clear, it wasn't my thing and I won't be going again.

As many onlookers have been quick to point out, this revelation is at odds with the anti-establishment, hedonistic rave/punk lifestyle that The Prodigy have been peddling since the '90s. Also, their last album had a fox at the centre of the marketing campaign/materials.
