Many people on my site are of the opinion that foxes are allotment vermin, and should be exterminated by whatever means. I am confused by this attitude because I thought foxes were essentially carnivorous, and only disturb plants when digging for slugs (or perhaps worms). So apart from the little piles of poop which they very cleverly leave right in the middle of my path, I notice little disturbance from foxes other that the odd scratch hole, and perhaps a reduced population of slugs.
Add to that, I will admit to thinking they are rather cute, especially the cubs ( :) ).
Do any other members have problems or experiences with foxes?
