Foxes and urbanisation
45Foxes and urbanisation
Recently on the news there was a report from Hackney that there was an attack on nine month old twin girls, Lola and Isabella by a fox which had got into their bedroom on Saturday evening.
Fox attacks are or were at least rare, but are recently becoming more of a problem in urban Britain, but why?
As humanity progress with larger cities and populations, nature inevitably will suffer and the way nature will deal with this sufferance will be a change of habits or a speed up in evolution. Foxes aren’t really the problem in this case, the problem is down to mass population and over urbanisation and natural foods for foxes are decreasing at an alarming rate that foxes resulted to scavenging through bins, but since humanity has become more environmentally protective and conscious about garbage and pollution, even this means for finding food is becoming hard, so foxes are forced to find another way, a way against their usual natural habits, to hunt the offspring of the greatest predator of them all, mankind, not out of spite, but out of a desperate measure to survive!

I really like this hub, I love the nature and wild animals and think about their natural habitat shrinking every day! It's depressing!
