Fascinating Foxy Facts is part of a new series that delves into the iconic native wildlife in Britain, highlighting the urgent need for wildlife conservation.
The red fox, one of Britain’s most beloved mammals, is also one of the most controversial. Its popularity is juxtaposed with widespread demonisation and persecution, a dichotomy that sparks intense debate.
'Canned Hunting' is a chilling form of trophy hunting. This week's Wildlife Matters Investigates the Lion cubs, born in captivity, are cruelly separated from their mothers within hours of birth.
They are then exploited in petting zoos until they reach adulthood, at which point they are confined to small, barren compounds. Their fate? A 'canned' hunt, where they are released into a larger compound for hunters to shoot at close range.
