The Red Paper: Canids
Up-dated edition includes section on
sarcoptic mange in foxes and treatment plus a list of wildlife sanctuaries and
rescue centres in the UK .
By the 1700s the British fox was
on the verge of extinction and about to follow the bear and wolf having been
hunted for sport for centuries. The answer was to import thousands of foxes per
year for sport. But foxes kept dying out so jackals were tried. Some were caught,
some escaped. Even wolves and coyote were released for hunting.
The summation of over 30 years
research reveals the damnable lie of "pest control" hunting but also
reveals the cruelty the animals were subject to and how private menageries as
well as travelling shows helped provide the British and Irish countryside with
some incredible events.
