This fox business is getting out of hand. They dont look like fluffy cartoon foxes, they are the size of skinny labradors and look like zombie dogs with their mange. Something needs to be done before somebody trips over one of them early one dark morning and gets savaged by them. They dont run away anymore.

If you believe anyone gets a kick out of ripping an animal to pieces then I suggest you expand your horizons and learn more about your fellow countryman and woman.

Foxes are creatures of habit and if there is a problem ones around, there are a lot easier ways of dealing with them that. If any farmer around here wants one dealt with, the hunt is the last ones they look for.
