Err no I didn't, I said I didn't want the issue to waste anymore parliament time and was in favour of the ban staying due to the massive increase in fox deaths since the ban was introduced and that it was about time we did something about the urban fox to.

Personally I don't think we should have wasted as much time as we did debating it in parliment, the country had and has much more pressing issues to deal with, although it did rather annoy me to hear that arch buffon Tony Banks shouting ''that showed the toffs'' when it finally was banned, he was obviously more interested in some sort of class discrimination than any issues of animal rights/cruelty and besides if the figures are true about the huge increase in fox deaths since the ban then I am all for it staying and it's a shame we cant do the same in the cities, I am sick of seeing the mess they create and the occasional cat being chased.

Many foxes only live to 2 years due to RTA's not because they are diseased which they are not, sure some become ill as with all wildlife does from time to time. It's a myth they are all full of mange.
|
But life for an urban fox is short, with an average lifespan of 18 months, because disease, usually mange, among numbers spreads more quickly in the towns and cities.

The fox didn't deserve to be put down  It's attitudes like this, that show whats wrong with some parts of humanity, no respect for other creatures!

I think they need to be culled in urban areas.

The mother DID NOT see the alledged fox mauling the children, she says she entered the room to see the "fox" in the room and the babies crying in the cots. end of.

That's waek, so what did it then, perhaps the babies did it to each other?

As a matter of fact I do, I'll post it when I get back, I am sure you'll agree it's a lot more plausable than some sort of Fox Moses leading his people to the promised land of urban utopia.
