I understand from word of mouth that the government
decided to offer $50,000 to anyone who could bag a fox for conservation. Hardly
surprising then that a few enterprising bounty hunters have teamed up with some
fishermen and imported a few. I would have thought however that it would be
sensible to shoot them first before releasing them into the wild.
As a consultant ecologist with considerable
experience of foxes in the UK I reckon I can track them pretty well. Anyone
fancy teaming up and making a few grand?!! Only joking - If it is true, how long
can the government maintain this ridiculous incentive. I ask you, who on earth
decided that this would work?
Simon.
