We are writing in response to your letter about the lack of care in management of fur-bearing predators populations in NH. Our lives have been greatly enriched this year by the residence, in our barn, of a beautiful healthy red fox female and her four kits. Their growth over the past two months has been a marvel to observe; their playful romping with one another and the watchful Mother not far away. We are shocked to learn that these beautiful animals are not carefully managed sustainably nor is there any accountability for human predators who kill these animals for “sport”. It would seem that we must keep our focus on environmental balance and not allow the senseless killing of these NH fur-bearing predators.
