I write in response to Anne Bond's letter (Mailbox, June 14) regarding extending fox hunting into towns and cities.

Even as an animal lover myself, I do not object to a humane cull of urban foxes, as there are a huge numbers on the streets.

I have six fox cubs in my garden at present and can't imagine how they will survive or even find their own territories, bearing in mind the mass of adults.

I do feel for the little girls who were injured. However, there's got to be a sensible way around this and showing the guilty fox and all the hype will only enrage people who will then take matters into their own hands.

The council needs to address the issue and devise a humane way of disposing of the foxes. I think fox hunting is vile and can't abide the horn-waving, regalia-clad hooray Henries who think that ripping a fox from limb to limb is fun – so unless there's a humane cull, I say "Hooray" to Henry and long may the ban continue!
