Why shoot foxes?
The British red fox is widespread across the whole of mainland Britain and Ireland. The best estimate of the current British fox population is 240,000 adults in spring, to which a production of 425,000 cubs is added annually. The fox has no natural predator and for the population to remain stable, 425,000 foxes must therefore die each year.
Fox numbers need to be managed and controlled to prevent the predation of lambs, piglets reared outdoors, free range and domestic poultry. Foxes can also have a significant impact on vulnerable species of ground nesting birds such as black grouse, partridge, lapwing and curlew (Bealey, Green, Robson, Taylor & Winspear, 1999).
In order to protect such species while they are breeding, conservators and gamekeepers aim to control fox numbers, particularly from late winter to early summer. Foxes are also controlled around pheasant and partridge rearing and release pens in late summer and autumn. Overall, the direct cost to UK agriculture from fox predation has been estimated at £12 million annually (UK Government figures) - Sport
I cant stop laughing - Roy in that ghillie suit - amazing
Australian man called in a Fox & the Fox was so upset it was fooled that it leapt up at the man & hit him above the stomach. No disguise, just kept very still by a fence post. Silver whistle.
Great video. Whistled a fox up and we stated each other down with a one meter gap between us, felt awesome getting that close to it.
Thanks for another really interesting video Roy:)
Roy walks so much better! Glad that surgery went well for him. Keep it up, pal!
What fox call is this. Do you have a link or more details. Fantastic vid btw :)
Hi - sorry about that. We put out our programme every Wednesday, which consists of half a dozen standalone items then, when we get round to it, we put out those items by themselves. Some people like to watch the long version and some the short. If you want just to watch the long version, subscribe just to the programme czcams.com/users/showfieldsportsbritain

Why do you keep uploading/publishing the same footage over and over again? It is getting really annoying at this stage!
Being polite? If you were polite, you have been moved from where people walks...
