It's not just Hunts that hate Foxes - #shorts

It’s not just hunts that hate foxes. The shooting industry despise them and they’ve been waging a war on them across the country.

Every year thousands of foxes are killed, all to ‘protect’ pheasant, partridges, and grouse until they are shot dead for fun…

Over this coming year we will be working hard to show everyone that no matter what your wildlife interests are – from getting rid of snares and traps to loving foxes or birds – we should all be united in taking down a vile industry that is responsible for so much suffering, cruelty, and death in our countryside.

We’re now close to ending illegal fox hunting for good. Ending the bird shooting industry will be a long hard fight, one that’s really only just beginning, but together we will do it.

The animators did really well capturing the terror and body language of the fox. Absolutely heart breaking

I love that this visualizes the situation instead of just telling you. People tend to process the severity of something when they can VISUALLY see it instead of being told.

I can understand if people hunt for food, but if they make fun, sports, play or something out of hunting, it's terrible and wrong...

[livingcarno]

Some people in the comments going to be like “Hunting is natural for humans!” and “Killing for sport isn’t wrong at all!”. Killing for sport isn’t necessarily bad when you’re not wasting the bodies of the kill. Leaving it there and not even using the resources it gives is a waste of life. Disappointing that people do this and don’t care because “animals aren’t innocent.”, it’s a stupid argument. They don’t operate how humans do. They don’t have any rights or wrongs, they operate on instincts.

Never mind Disney sucks and somebody better needs to hire him

[jamesjudy]

The animation for this is absolutely impeccable. The terror in that fox's face makes it impossible not to sympathize with him on a deep instinctual level. I'm horrified for him and the rest of his brethren at this moment

Humans: “F u foxes *kills half of the species*”
Also humans many years later: “Naurrr they went extinct 😭😭”

I cried during this, i hate seeing animals being hurt. I cant imagine the terror they feel. I feel so bad. I hope this brings more awareness.🧡

As a hunter, that's wrong to me. Foxes aren't a meat animal, so they shouldn't be killed like that. It isn't about the kill. Animals shouldn't be killed for no reason. If you don't intend to eat it, let it be.

Hunters:dinosaurs came extinct for a reason! Now birds are next to extinction!
Good humans & Animals: you’re the one going extinct!

[MCkleeee]

This is absolutely heartbreaking of what they do to these poor foxes like animals are literally my life dude😭

[magnemon]

This animation is amazing, expressive, and effectively conveys the fear of the fox onto the watcher. It’s amazing but also depressing

As a hunter myself. This is what I try to get across to people about respecting the wild. Often I hear of ranchers slaughtering wolves and coyotes for killing their livestock when most of the time it's stray dogs. Most don't even try to think of a predator deterrence to dissuade them. ....most would slaughter the pups in their dens.

The wolves keep the more than the deer population in check. They keep the other predators in the check. Without them the deer population explodes and with them so do the coyotes. We blame foxes for eating our chickens after we cleared the land and deprived them of food to place our coups.

We are not a sane species.

[NgaMarsters]

In my youth, a part of my family lived in a deeply isolated area. We were forced to hunt and cultivate food, not just for ourselves, but also for the twenty or so dogs under our care. As the years passed, the dogs gradually left us, with Spud being the last to go. Eventually, we were able to establish a supply line for food and other necessities, and a grocery store was built three hours away, easing the burden of hunting and growing our own food.

"What did the foxes do to you?"
Shooters:"..."
"Exactly."

[wintershock]

As a hunter I absolutely hate the idea of not only raising animals for the sole purpose of shooting them later, but punishing animals for taking advantage of the abundance of food thrown their way. Punishing an animal for being hungry isn’t right. It is cruel and shows a lack of regard for lives outside of our own. I only hunt for food and to help control our deer populations. After idiots like this killed off our wolves, blaming them for the deaths of livestock, the deer have began to over graze and overpopulate. With that comes disease, less healthy herds and destruction of ecosystems. We need wolves, coyotes, foxes, and many other predators to keep our ecosystems healthy. It is unfair for everyone to kill them for doing their job.

[nicomico]

this is so good oh my god
you can seriously FEEL the horror that the fox is going through, it's making my heart rate go up this is amazing animation
