Beagling is a form of hunting that involves using trained beagle dogs to track and chase small game, primarily rabbits and hares. The dogs rely on their keen sense of smell to locate the animals, and hunters follow the sound of the dogs' barks to find the game. This activity is often conducted in open fields and wooded areas. The practice of beagling is typically done in a group, with several hunters participating. It emphasizes teamwork between the dogs and their handlers, as well as respect for wildlife and the environment. Beagling is often seen as a recreational sport and is regulated in many regions.
