fox hunting

<< < (2/9) > >>

Mudlark:
I used to hate the hunt especially when the lanes were overrun with abandoned Land and Range Rovers when I was trying to drive them on a Saturday.

But in recent years I've seen the damage a fox can do when he gets in to a chicken run.

I've seen the stupidity of the RSPCA releasing urban foxes into a farming community and then wondered why the farmer has shot 25 foxes in a night - the ones that they released :roll:  :roll:

Hunting the fox kept them on the move kept the numbers down but never exterminated them. How long will it be before the fox is shot into extermination by this stupid law?

Timi:
Tally Ho!
Woh there bessie.

Oh yes.

Dave:
I like foxs leave them alone if they need to be reduced in numbers then it can be done quickly and humanely.

we have a couple of familys of foxes that live in the woods by my house and play on the common in front of the house. everyone in the street feeds them. we have never had a problem with them in the bins or gardens. And when food is put out for them the local cats join in and its a commom sight to see the cats and foxes eating side by side. So the way i look at it if they are not a threat then they should be left alone. But If a farmer see them near a chicken shed then yes shoot it. but must say i cant see the fun in chasing a fox. Its not much of a "sport" one little fox against 20 horses and people and about the same amount of dogs.
Oh and i dont agree with the antis as well. injuring or having to have a horse/dog put down because of there actions in not been very animal freindly in my book.

Rant over. Going back to me whiskey now am i. :wink:
