Pest control is usually more efficient than Hunting. Hunting exists purely for the "entertainment" of it's participants. Nothing to do with keeping fox populations down..

When was the last time you saw a rat catcher turning up with a many other people (all on horses) and a load of dogs?

I actually have no problem with pest control. Foxes *are* a problem in some areas, and certainly *aren't* the cute and fluffy slightly wilder cousin of dogs that the anti fox hunting lobby would have us believe. I've seen what foxes can do to other animals. What I do have a problem with is the barbaric spectacle of Hunting.
