A man from London has been criticised by the RSPCA after employing help to cull foxes in his garden

A man in Kentish Town, in north London, has been criticised by the RSPCA after employing a pest controller to cull foxes that had dug holes in his garden. Spokeswoman Sue Royal said that killing foxes was inhumane, and only encourages animals from other areas to move in and take their place. However, she also said that relocation of the animals was ineffective: “Moving foxes from one area to another is not appropriate in terms of disease management or considered humane.”
