Mungler Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 I thought it was illegal to release a pest; like releasing rats wouldn't make you very popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wesman Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 You have to question the sanity of people like that. The BBC are shocking. I've seen a shoot once on countryfile. No mention of boxing day hunts or anything. The BBC are the mouthpiece of this barmy government Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Countryfile is filmed for the townies that like to look at 'cute' foxes and have never actually been into contact with the real countryside. Some of these folks should see the damage and devastation foxes do do poultry. I think it is a case of monkey see monkey do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRS Posted January 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Did it explain why he is doing it please. i did not hear an explanation given mark , i can only assume ! Countryfile is filmed for the townies that like to look at 'cute' foxes and have never actually been into contact with the real countryside.Some of these folks should see the damage and devastation foxes do do poultry. I think it is a case of monkey see monkey do that worries me , how many more loonies are now going to do the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is a case of monkey see monkey do I think by reading some of the replies on subjects in my very short time on this forum some of the pw members are also in this bunch. As it very clear some have been reading too many magzines and watching programes like countryfile. Alot of folk seem to have very little knowledge of countrylife in great britain. I am only 36 and have milked cows from a very early age and lived and breathed the countrylife for all of them bar 7 years in armed forces . And still learning everday. Countryfile has some good topics but this has really put me off the programe as a geniune good veiwing. Oth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRS Posted January 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 i think that the program has got an "air" about it now , that guy adam does not seem genuine and his comments and statements are to the camera and rehearsed too much for me to believe him i think it is steered towards a different type of audience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilthepiker1 Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Anyone who goes out lamping rabbits will tell you there is already a far to healthy population of foxes out there without adding to it. I am sorry but these towny no good doing numpties should be educated about the ways of the country. Regards all. Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo33 Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 Saw it last night. Are we losing the battle to these tree huggers? I bet the Scottish gamekeepers ar thrilled about the wild cat breeding by the same bunch. Lovely people, they even fed the cats chicks lest they should lose the idea, un believable : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al4x Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 hate to say it but not sure i heard the foxes were being bred to release. The farmer in question has set up a native wildlife park so the public can see British Wildlife up close, part of that was trying to see if they could have a littler of cubs for spring to no doubt get the public cooing they didn't mention about releasing them unless I missed that bit. They also had deer and wildcats which I'm not sure of the problem with as they are a declining UK species and do we want to loose them altogether? The bit that got my goat was calling a pheasant a native UK species Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbit Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 wot a joke are these peaple rite in the head? but dont they need permision from the land owner to release them not just to let them go anyware? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
