35 Fox Pics That Show What Wonderful Creatures They Are

Never understood what is fashionable about wearing an animal's fur. I wish most kind of hunting could be banned. Not talking about when people need to defend themselves or control the animal population.

To Bebe, saying that animal hunting should be banned: I've never experienced this before, but when my mom grew up, my grandparents couldn't afford food from stores. They had to hunt often. I don't think they did it for fun, although I have gotten the impression that Mom was good at it. They would go out every week, especially winters, and hunt in the mountains. They lived in Montana, an American state that is known for being large but having a proportionately small population, and having lots of wildlife. They hunted only when they needed it-often-and made use of what they could. Twice, a friend of theirs preserved the skin to hang it up, but other than that, there is no sign that they used to hunt, except for hunting guns. I agree, you shouldn't be hunting primarily for being able to sell the coats, but sometimes, we need to follow the natural order of the world, and revert to the predator-eats-prey world.

Disgusting, bestial sub-human bastards, why? There's no excuse for animal abuse. All that human bestiality is legal because people do not care about animal cruelty. Please get involved, sign petitions, support animal protection organizations, vote for humane politicians!! If your government representatives don't care about animal welfare they'll will NOT care about you. Please help us fight animal cruelty. All those" "aw, how cute" comments will not help to protect animals....and us from human bestiality. There's indisputable link between animal cruelty and violence against people. No peace on earth while animals suffer - all animals, wild and domesticated alike.

It's not legal to hunt foxes with dogs. It is legal to use hunting birds to lfush foxes from cover apparently. It's also legal to shoot them. Throwing cubs to hounds is not legal, and never used to be done when hounds were trained in the field. Hunts shouldn't be training hounds to kill foxes, and most don't do it. Foxes do kill chickens, and more chickens are kept out of doors now than have been for many years. If you eat cheap eggs and chicken, you have to accept that the farmers need to contol foxes. Trapping and shooting are cruel, but farmers will take what steps are necessary.

I don't think it's a good idea to go extreme with diets, or anything, for that matter. I do understand that you can get all needed nutrients without meat-we rarely by straight up milk anymore after reading in How Not To Die and watching a document called forks over knives what milk does to you in the amounts that most people have it in, so while we do use real cheese and yogurt, we don't by jug milk anymore and prefer rice milk-but some people just like the taste of a burger, or of a steak, fresh off the grill. It's in the nature of a lot of animals to eat other animals. We can adopt more humane ways of killing animals, and we can try to petition against it by checking where you get your food from, but eating meat isn't inherently bad. We have made it a bad thing. In more moderate, efficient, and humane ways, it might be a good balance. I get it that you said plant based, not to become a vegetarian, so I get that you might already understand this, but just throwing it out.

Rabies has been eliminated in the UK for many decades now - way longer than 20 years. Rabies was never used as a reason for fox hunting - any one who told you that is either misinformed, or just plain lying. a) rabies is not in the UK b) if foxes did have rabies, why would you risk rabies being passed to your hounds or terriers ?
