{{Short description|Hunting of hares and rabbits by beagle dogs}} {{Multiple issues| {{Cleanup|reason=A lot of unreferenced sentences, written in a slight non neutral tone|date=July 2022}} {{More citations needed|date=July 2022}} }} [[Image:Caynsham-beagles.jpg|thumb|right|The Caynsham Foot Beagles (c. 1885)]] {{Use dmy dates|date=November 2018}} '''Beagling''' is mainly the [[hunting]] of [[hare]]s and [[rabbit]]s by [[beagle]]s using their strong sense of smell. A beagle pack (10 or more [[hound]]s) is usually followed on foot, but in a few cases mounted. Beagling is often enjoyed by 'retired' fox hunters who have either sustained too many injuries or lost the agility to ride horseback, or who enjoy the outdoors and the camaraderie of the hunt. It is also traditionally a way for young men and women to learn how to handle hounds on a smaller scale before they go on to hunt with foxhounds.
