One odd thing I noticed in one of the articles was about the amount of hair in 
the scats. It said there was a lot of hair, and that that's normally associated 
with captive foxes.

Are they suggesting someone is keeping captive foxes somewhere in Tasmania so 
they have access to fresh scats? If that's the case then whoever is responsible 
should be found and prosecuted for risking the animal or animals escaping.

If it's not the case then where did the scats come from? If they came from the 
mainland then why get them from captive animals? There are any number of scats 
from wild foxes in any urban parkland.
