The argument against fox hunting has always been about the way it was done, for the majority at least .I don't doubt there was an element that want no foxes killed at all but the sensible majority know they are a pest with no natural predators and you may be right about the farmers ,would a farmer really wait for hunt weekend to kill a fox that just got into his chickens or would he get his 12 bore out and do the job straight away
