Blasted vermin keep digging holes in my garden.
Being torn apart by hounds is too good for 'em.
The urban Fox is becoming a totally different species, Fox Hunting with hounds certainly isn't going to help its demise.Last edited by Bagpuss; 9 June 2010, 10:14.

A quick google and you can pick up quite a few similar stories.
You can also find claims that the Tories have made up the latest story to get fox hunting legalised/decriminalised.

For the rural foxes I would agree but the urban ones are a different proposition.
This article about them from four years ago mentions reports of them entering houses and biting children, although it does not have any specific examples to support this.

Got to the "patio" & suddenly saw me looking at it through the window.
Cue exit at great rate.

I feel saddened for the poor kids that were mauled, but I can’t seem to override my suspicions about this case. It’s very unusual fox behaviour. It all seems a bit McCann like. Does the family have a dog?

I haven't buried any bodies there.
Er.
Recently anyway.
Apart from the ZeitMog & she's cunningly buried in the greenhouse where the foxes can't get at her.
