The Fox And The Geese

Posted on May 13, 2009 | 4 Comments

A fox stalked Canada geese today, on the grass at Compo Beach.

Officials deemed the fox a threat to the community and killed it with 1 shot, WestportNow.com reported.

They got the wrong species.

    Who decided? For what reason was the fox considered to be a “danger to the community”? We know the geese are dangerous…. what a mistake.

    Dan,

    Too late now! I can think of several Westport locales that would have hired that fox.

    Deer carry ticks that cause lyme , dogs have been seen biting mailmen and pedestrians, raccoons can carry rabies, danger to the community all around ….
    If we take out natural predators we cause the goose and deer problem to get worse. The cardboard coyotes better beware!
