[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 663217, member: 14557"] Depends from the place, but fox hunting certainly has it's place. Close human habitation people influence to the ecosystem so much anyway that we need to fix it too. And people also have some preferences on which animals are more valuable than others. We have for example lately sailed and visited couple islands that are protected area and are closed from early spring till the young birds learn to fly. Except hunters are allowed (and paid) to go to those small islands and islets and their job is to kill every fox and mink that have gotten there during winter. Some rare birds nest there and even one fox may kill every young bird from whole islet... Also in mainland some of our birds are getting less common, because fox etc. populations are in rise, so hunters tend to hunt those predators to give also the birds the chance. Foxes especially tend to greatly benefit from people, so they are getting more plenty around human habitats. And that is not good for some other animals. [/QUOTE]
