    Before the hunting ban fewer than 2000 foxes were killed yearly by hunting.

    At present some 80,000 foxes are killed each year by shooting and over 100,000 by being hit by a motor vehicle.

    Perhaps foxey-woxey lovers might do better using their video cameras to harass speeding motorists rather than local hunts?

    Personally were I to be reincarnated as Reynard I would much prefer taking my chances outrunning a pack of hounds rather than a bullet or a motor car.

    Having seen the mange ridden and interbred foxes who have a den on my partner's allotment I suspect it would be in the interest of the fox population itself to have a hunt taking out the ill and the old as used to happen.
