Staff outcry brings cull of foxes to a halt at UPS London depot
Evening Standard
|October 26, 2023
A CULL of urban foxes at a parcel firm in north London was halted after objections from staff.
A pest control firm was hired to trap and shoot the foxes after faeces were found in the UPS yard and in a van after a door was left open. Staff claimed the culling of at least three at the Kentish Town depot was "cruel and needless".
It is not illegal to kill foxes but it must be done humanely. Anyone causing "unnecessary suffering" to a trapped or snared fox can be jailed and fined. The animal has to be killed while caught in the snare.
