I never said it was and I suggest you pull your neck in...
What I dislike is the attitude that culling all wildlife is wrong and the violence acquainted with the hunt saboteurs.It's completely unnecessary.
All the emotive crap that comes out over fox hunting hides the facts that foxes can outbreed and outgrow their food supply in an area.When that happens then foxes will become unhealthy as a group and control is needed.They are NOT a fluffy cuddly animal.They are a predator at the top of their particular food chain.I also am absolutely positive that a good half of the anti hunt group are just wanting to spoil some toffs weekend fun rather than being on the foxes side..
I personally think fox hunting is NOT the best way but so far no one on either side of the divide has actually come up with a workable idea to control fox numbers.
Perhaps it's time for both sides to stop placard waving and actually think logically and scientifically about the situation? or is it just easier to fall back into the same old patterns?
