This has been most visible in the United Kingdom where fox hunting with dogs was a traditional sport and an occasional localised means of culling, until this was made illegal in Scotland in August, 2002, and in England and Wales in February, 2005. The fox features in much folklore , usually as a wily villain, though sometimes also as the underdog who triumphs over human efforts to control or destroy it. Poultry is the most commonly-taken domesticated prey, Red Foxes will on some occasions kill young or small animals, particularly lambs and kids. In exceptional circumstances, they may attack sub-adult and adult sheep and goats and sometimes small calves. Foxes will usually kill lambs or kids by repeatedly biting the neck and back, which is usually the result from young animals being caught while lying down. Red Foxes also are noted for carrying small carcasses back to their dens to feed their young which may account for some poultry, lambs and kids that disappear and are never found. Scientific studies in Britain found that between 0.5 % and 3 % of otherwise viable lambs may be taken by foxes, described as a small amount when compared to the mortality caused by exposure, starvation and disease.

This badger and others come round every night for a rumage and a feed. This one came early whilst it was still daylight so I was able to video it quite easily.

An amazing evenings Badger watching at www.badgerwatchdorset.co.uk. The Badgers are viewed from purpose built hides erected in front of the Sett. Peanuts are sprinkled in front of the hides and the Badgers come out at dusk to feed on them. At one point there were 9 in front of us. Adults and some of last years babies. So lovely to see them ambling around instead of dead at the roadside or running across the road in your headlights. Well recommended if you are down in the South West. Check out the website for more info or call 01300 345293. [More] [Less]
