Foxes..

I know this is a subject that has had it's heated discussions but last week, we were watching TV in the van and one man had been attacked by a fox (can't remember whether it was a tv programme or the news) then Louis Walsh was on Celebrity Juice (on Telly ) and he said that he feeds foxes in his garden.

Why do people feed them when they don't need feeding - they aren't helping them they're killing them (in a sense)

Sorry needed to rant.

People misguidedly feed vermin and make the situation worse, meaning of course in the long run and as we are seeing now, more problems for those animals concerned.

Foxes are very opportunistic and ably demonstrate that every day. Thing is when people feed them in gardens they also increase their tolerance to humans, they even boast about how close they can get, then in turn the Fox loses its fear and bingo! Well, we can see cant we!
