As it is, foxes are too numerous, and increasing in numbers all the
time, at the same time as other wildlife is on the decline.

I wonder if there might be some correlation there?


Or what about cats kill everything and a few of them provide food for
foxes?

If foxes are responsible for killing all the wildlife the situation
would be self regulating as their food source disappears. There is a
better correlation between the activities of man, including pet
ownership, and the decline of some wildlife.

Next you will be saying that Bovine Tuberculosis is spread by badgers
and not by cows that are so inbred to make them highly susceptible to
the disease.
