Britain's 'biggest ever fox' caught, killed | ||
2011-01-04 | ||
[Emirates 24/7] A fox, believed to be the biggest ever found in Britain, was caught and killed after it apparently ate a family's pet cat. The giant creature was twice the normal size of its species and weighed a massive 26.5 pounds. That's a big ass fox...and a damn nice coat. It was four feet long - which is the same height as an average seven-year-old child and approximately the size of a coyote, dingo or Iberian lynx. Maybe the dingo ate your cat?
Couldn't have anything to do with outlawing hunting the beasts... Can't use a gun, can't use a knife, can't use a slingshot, what am I supposed to hunt with in Britain, a spoon? OUR DIRTY LOOKS ARE USELESS AGAINST THEM!!! Talbot spoke about the suspected attack by the fox on the family's cat. "The cat was on the doormat when they [his parents] went to bed and heard some commotion. They saw a fox going up the drive later on that night, but didn't think anything of it. Later that morning, they came out and there was fur and bits of the cat everywhere," he said. The veterinarian caught two foxes after setting the trap. Both animals were humanely destroyed. | ||
