Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting

Quote:
in cities foxes’ impact is minimal. They scavenge while our cats murder with genocidal impunity.’

MMM a tad over emotive .Cats are doing what comes natural ,as are foxes .The other thing he fails to realise is that urban foxes are essentially the same as stray dogs .We don't allow stray dogs to roam the streets ,so why should we allow foxes to roam the streets ?

He then goes on to say ,

Packham, 50, said: ‘People think they are out of control. Well, actually no, because even in the chaos of our cities animal populations will ultimately be self-regulating – disease or overcrowding and subsequent reduced fecundity will prevail to moderate the population.
They won't be self regulating if groups such as the rspca and NFWS ,etc keep rescuing sick foxes instead of letting them die naturally
