Deaf foxes

HOW many of London's urban fox population suffer from hearing problems? There are so many foxes in the city nowadays that citizens who want to keep them away from their gardens can buy fox repellents that emit an ultrasonic tone. But the packaging of the one that Colin Matthews bought warned: "This product will not work with deaf foxes".

Yeah, keep that up and when you go deaf, you will have spry foxes on your tail whacking you over your head when you mess in their garden...

Hedgehogs? Really? Sometimes you see them here as pets. They look so cute and innocent.

Well, I only had to do it once and it seemed to work. But i've never tried doing it with a pack of them in the wild. Coyotes can get pretty big. Like a small wolf. I've seen videos of them attack people. I have a video of me walking in some wooded area near my house and them howling really close to me while I was video taping. ill see if I can come across it and post it.

a fox around here attacted a car and ripped off the plastic hub cap, i'm guessing it smelt the scent of a dog on it?
and after it ripped it off it kept pouncing on the hub cap

also they are the noisiest friggin animals ever, they whail and scream in the middle of the night so bad it sounds like a car alam that has gone flat but a thousand times louder, a stand off between a tomcat and a fox woke up the entire street
