Default Foxes and Bonemeal

Has anyone got any suggestions for preventing foxes (or any other animal for
that matter) digging up plants which have had bonemeal added to their
planting holes.
I planted 10 photinia on Friday in order to grow a small hedge and added
bonemeal to the planting holes as recommended. I came home from work today
to find every plant had been clawed at and some had been ripped out of the
soil completely. It's a sorry sight. I have tried to replace the plants
but I fear some may have been damaged beyond repair.
