for a fox cull in our cities and towns ?
http://
I have them in my garden and for the most part they show no fear until i'm about two metres near.
I see them morning noon and night in all the parks I go running in and on main roads.
At night they make a horrendous noise screaming and calling to each other
Problem is theres easy pickings for them, why go stalking , chasing and generally expending lots of resources to get your food when its easily available all over the place, handily left by humans ?
Go to the country side and you hardly see any because food is far harder to come by, it has to be hunted, an expensive past-time for a fox and as a result theres a lot less of them.
most of them that I do see all look pretty manky and mangy not like the basil-brush cute pics you see as kids in the books etc, probably as a result of eating our leftover junk foods they find on all the streets and bins they have easy access to !

Considering how the human population is growing, and our cities are getting bigger and bigger, maybe we need a human cull!
After all we are suppsoed to share this world with all living things, but us humans seem to think it is ours only to ruin as we see fit.
Just think what a great world this would be with no humans.
No rubbish, no pollution, no weapons, no huge dams blocking rivers, no concrete motorways and skycrapers everywhere, no killing rhinos and elephants for their tusks and horns, only "natural" extinction instead of man made.
What a wonderful world !

No strictly come dancing .no deal or no deal ,no x factor .,big brother deliberate no capital letters .Remember posting here about a year ago about a fox following me when out for a walk .Never thought much more about but maybe they are changing into more unfriendly animals .Could this be another ploy by the bring back hunting brigade ?
Regarding a cull of the foxes.
Only if they were becoming a real danger/nuisance to the well being of the rest of nature's beings.
But one isolated incident such as this cannot be a reason for a widespread cull of these creatures.
There have been much more problems caused by the actions of some domesticated pets, so should these also be culled?

the much beloved status symbol of chavs and the like, staffs, most definitely !
Problems with foxes will increase slowly but surely as they become braver and their nature changes due to evolutionary considerations.
of course maybe they'll go the way of the wolf and become one of mans best friends thousands of years down the line, once we've domesticated them and bred out the "killer hunter" traits as much as possible, or maybe sooner with all the advances in genetic manipulation.

I'm slightly baffled by the family having a door that apparently they could not shut. They are very lucky only a fox got in. Are they completely without any resources - block it off with some lumber or something? Statistically in an area that densely populated there will be a certain number of human pervs, weirdoes and murderers to say nothing of foxes, rats, feral cats and dogs. You would not catch me leaving a way in for any of them whether it was the council's responsibility or not.
No cull thank you! Cull the humans IMO....we take over the habitat of the wild life and wonder why they retaliate. Never heard of foxes attacking humans years ago...wonder why they apparently do now? Couldn't be because we are taking over their hunting grounds, driving them into cities and urban areas? Never saw a fox in town in my day, now even I see them in my garden and you couldn't get less rural than that.
WE are to blame IMO....animals don't choose to live with the crap human society, we force them into untenable situations....we steal their land and make sure they have to keep moving because of over population. But hey! Like dog attacks on children, it is never our fault...always the animal of course! At responsibly as a human (ha bluddy ha) and animals will respond...otherwise put up with the way animals behave and accept that it is OUR doing...not theirs.
