Got any links and how do urban foxes fit into those stats?Because frankly they overbreed round here.The locals adults are suffering heavily from mange as well.

I have been to a good few hunts in my younger days and i did not care if those that were doing it had a spoon in the mouth or not. I cannot stomach the fact that these so called humans take pleasure in seeing an animal hunted down by a pack of dogs and then ripped apart for there pleasure and gratification. i dont think i can make it any clearer than that. Simples
So do you have any solutions to controlling numbers?
