It appears they also only take very young foxes, and are happy to direct
rescuers of older ones to a local vet. I can guess what will happen to them
there.
They say they check that people must have a fox proof enclosure before they can
take a rescued fox. I guess there's nothing stopping those people then
releasing them later, but at least they'll be de-sexed if they do.
Unless all these precautions are just talk and only serve to make the operation
appear legal, they sound like they do more good than harm, although I can't see
it being more efficient than traditional fox control measures.
