You should see a henhouse after a fox has got in, killed them all for fun and eaten none of them.

Your wrong foxes do not kill for fun. Most animals need to find food every day to survive. Some nights are better than others in terms of food for a fox so, given the opportunity, foxes will always kill surplus food and cache (bury) it, to eat on another night when hunting is less good. This is a very successful strategy for surviving in the wild.

However, when a fox breaks into a hen house it is surrounded by easily caught prey. Its normal behaviour, and a good survival strategy is to kill all prey available and try to cache it. Given the option, the fox will come back for the remaining corpses and cache them.

The sun newspaper is not always the best place to learn facts.

Foxes are a pest no matter what way you try and paint it, and no its not actually a good survival strategy, considering I'm going to find the fecker and shoot it in the noggin after it does that.

Listen, darlin'...Try not to insult me by suggesting I get my facts from The Sun when you clearly don't know the difference between "you're" and "your". You make yourself look silly.

Foxes DO kill for fun. I know plenty of farmers who would attest to that.

If you want to get all teary over the fluffy animals, take yourself off to the local abattoir and see where you chicken nuggets and burgers come from.

Jay seemed to think they should!

It's an emotive subject and whilst I don't agree with the barbaric practice of hounds ripping foxes to pieces, we do need to control them. The urban fox population is growing with an estimated 10,000 foxes in London alone.

Its such a pathetic reason to nominate someone for because their outside activities have no bearing on their personality in the house towards another housemate which is what your should be judging people on.

Also some of the housemates are clearly quite thick because fox hunting has been banned for years and years and they were talking like he still does it. As a housemate he's quite a nice guy and seems to pull his own weight in the house (he's always washing up!) and thats the thanks he gets.

I fear Harry will go because the way BB has edited it you haven't really got to see much of him and anything they have shown of him is either in bad light or making him seem boring (another reason why you need the live stream to make proper judgments on people).

Your description of a fox sounds very much like you are talking about an anti social person.

I thought you were talking about the local yobs on the lash every weekend, Foxes do not know what time it is so cannot be blamed for disturbing your sleep,and IF WE left there habitation intact instead of building on it,they would not be on the streets scavenging for food .
