Send for the beagles!
The tide, it seems, is finally turning against the urban fox – about time, too, for those many rural dwellers frustrated by New Labour’s metropolitan, anthropomorphic misunderstanding of fox-hunting.
They kill famers? Kill the fox!
James Willshire, a spokesman for Hackney Council, said: “A fourth fox, a vixen, has been trapped at the house.
“We are using a cage trap which is set up in the garden with some kind of food used as bait. It doesn’t kill them straight away.”
The Telegraph brings news of yet another fox attack, taking the tally-ho to three:
Anne Cann, an Age Concern volunteer from New Malden in Surrey, woke in the early of hours last August to the sound of her elderly cat, Romulus, being attacked…
Mrs Cann, 74, said: “It hung on to the poor old cat and wouldn’t let it go. I picked up it up by it’s hind legs and I shook it and I bashed it and it just hung on. I got quite badly injured and bitten in the process.”
And the birds and mice cheered heartily. Any more?
