Yes that THING that just won't go away!
Post your view on it. But first heres mine:
Fox hunting is needed to keep fox levels down there is not argument about that but the way it is done is contraversial. The fox would be chased frieghtened half to death before the dogs ripped the other half of its life away this would be a reletivly painless death(Think about it... Dog bites neck, Fox's neck snaps, Fox dead.).
If you were to shoot them then another problem would arise: Would you hit a small, moving target. Even if you did would it be as painless. If you got it in the head then yes but you are more likely to hit it in the body. This then leaves the fox stuck in the rain and with a wound that is open to infection. This would be a much more painful death than the dogs.
If you were to put some poison down then that would have dreadful effects on all animals in the area. And think... would you like to eat a sheep if it had been in an area where they had put down poison. Didnt think so.
So i am actually on the fence as until a new way of keeping fox levels down is found then hunting is a fine solution.
Thanks for reading.

Why can't farmers just protect their chickens (and other livestock) better?
All three fox-killing methods are currently used anyway.

Not bad at all :-)
I'm against fox-hunting with dogs though - it seems perserve, in that the hunters seem to get way too much pleasure from seeing an animal ripped apart.
If I had to choose, I'd pick shooting. A good marksman should be able to kill an animal with one shot, and not leave it injured.

Ban it outright. It's not needed.
So a fox gets the odd chicken - big deal.
During the Foot & Mouth outbreak, hunting was banned anyway. Did the farmers suffer increased livestock losses? No.
As an anti-hunt campaigner once said to me - most farmers keep their chickens locked up in one way or another, and foxes don't carry keys.
There is no easy way to kill a fox - even shooting isn't humane. I read an article on the web several months ago, from a reporter who accompanied a hunter hired by a farmer to kill foxes "humanely". He shot a fox, but only succeeded in wounding it. The hunter didn't want to "waste" a second bullet, so to finish the fox off, he stamped on its head. That's really humane, isn't it?

Have you ever seen a fox hunt? it's one of the sickest things in this country. Just think of it this way would you like to be ripped limb from limb by a pack of ravenous dogs? No i bet you wouldn't. Do you really think that as soon as the dog catches the fox they kill it, NO they chase it to it's hole then dig it out and then let the dogs rip it to pieces.
So all this time that fos is in total fear, and that is one of the worst ways to die. So think about it for a second yeah before you write your opinions.
