Ah, I understand. It is the same with Japan who is hunting wales only for scientific investigation. Only a big, big lie.Yes it is however the hunters pretend they are trail hunting but buy fox urine from abroad and deliberately lay the scent in areas where they know there are foxes and then they say that they can't stop the dogs. They also have thugs who go and dig out a fox den so that any parents and cubs get killed by the dogs.
The police know it is going on but rarely prosecute and some police forces side with the hunters. There are lots of groups called saboteurs who try to disrupt the hunts in a peaceful way.
Guess what arrived today. Yayyy the dandelion seeds have arrived @Maro2Bear. Thank you so much Mark. It only took a month. [emoji23] View attachment 272818
Speaking of cheese and great sandwiches, this popped in my TWITTER today. Hands down the Brown Bloomer for me. The Wensleydale tops it. But, I enjoy a nice aged brie too. Hmmmm.

I know how that goes. I have been putting off getting a new phone and dragging my feet about upgrading my phone's operating system. I hate phone shopping even worse than I hate grocery shopping and clothes shopping.Good mornooning everyone. Yesterday I went to buy a new phone which wasn’t as straightforward as it should have been. And then I had a governor meeting in the evening. I do finally have the phone set up and working, so hopefully there will be no further glitches in my attention to the CDR!
Yes, foxes are poor creatures in Germany. They can be shot almost all time of the year. Only the time when female foxes have their pups the females are protected against shooting. But which huntsman knows if he shoots a female or a male from a distance of some 100 meters and at night ?Well I hope that they stay safe. Poor things.
The guy that had her, raised her from a hatchling. They were moving and could not take her and thought it better to give her up. That’s all I know. She has adjusted very well so far, only thing is I have not seen her bask yet. But that will come.She is beautiful. What is her story?

I never heard that foxes smell like aniseed....It is. The hunts are supposed only to do drag trail hunting. Occasionally the hounds “pick up the scent of a fox” and follow that instead with the inevitable result. It is debatable how accidental it is that the hounds know how to follow a real fox trail. The drag scent is aniseed...
