I do not pretend to understand the North, but here "South" and "South West" are different, as it "South East."

More annoyed you got my name wrong and placed Idaho in teh wrong city, though.

As for Foxes, from Google on a site by Conservatives (Tories) against Fox Hunting It argues it represents 2/3rds of Tory voters and 84% of the Population on this matter:

It says Foxes primarily prey on Carrion (dead animals). Goes on to say that Foxes are used as a scapegoat for bad farming and how Ewes are fiercely protective of their lambs, even headbutting sheepdogs to death if they approach during lambing session.

Goes on to say that Fox hunting is a highly ritualised social event where they set hordes of dogs onto wild animals 'for sport', classifying it as a bloodsport and not exercises in pest control.
Hunting is a Field Sport, as the primary activity is the hunt, not the kill. Feel free to argue all Field Sports are cruel, though.

Anyway...

*Head. Ripped. Off*

One of the lambs was headless, another had it's throat ripped out. I'll never forget the image of that tiny animal just killed and left for dead.

I suppose it might not have been foxes, could have been a particularly angry badger but the multiple kills in close proximity and only one missing lamb suggest "fox".

The Farmer down the road did lose two of his dogs to something evil though, with the third found the next morning huddled in the corner. That was probably a badger.

You haven't addressed my question - why is it OK for the fox to kill wastefully but not for the hounds to kill the fox?
