Similarly, trying to give drugs to animals to control their population is a vicious circle, as it can also have untold effects on the food chain, but it just leads to resistance and huge amounts of spending.
Fox hunting may be barbaric and not particularly effective at controlling fox populations, but at least it doesn't disrupt the environment.

So by controlling vegetation and foxes' diets, you're still killing them? Of course not. I'm not trying to come off as some fox expert here, don't even care for them really, but I'm pretty sure there would be ways to control their population by introducing toxins into their diets to sterilise them. I dunno, you'd think there would be.

Notice the way I edited the post so that it didn't include the part on sterilisation, and only the parts on diet - the only bits I was addressing.
I personally am not a great fan of foxes as they crap all over the garden. I mean there is a few hundred acres of nice woodland about 200 metres away but nooooo have to crap on the lawn.
M4s are unlikely to ever be available here although the ban on automatic rifles in america has now expired, expect a shooting in a school near you soon. I know of quite a few people who will not try to avoid a fox in the road. I feel annoyed that even with thousands of people pretesting (90% peacefully) they will be ignored because this has become a political screen now and im sure people who have no idea what they are talking about would be ever so annoyed if fox hunting continued. Why are we worrying about foxes, lets worry about other animals that are actually endangered, lets stop all these homes being built in the southeast on green land. Lets focus more on people rather than bloody foxes. Damned things crapping on my lawn.

Actually many Christians believe it to be stopping protential life, so I suspose you could call it murder, in away?
