I'm sure there is enough walking talking abortions on this very forum who would give it a try, not forgetting to grunt of course
.
We lost a rabbit some years ago to a fox. Was our fault for not bringing it in soon enough [pain in the arse chasing a rabbit around the garden waving a rake!].
That rabbit sounds badass... it was raving at a wake!
Even if it is legal, it is not moral to simply kill a living creature because it is in your garden. Yes, it killed your rabbit, but it was simply being a predatory animal. I would call the RSPCA and see if they can relocate it, or, simply, leave it the hell alone.
Surely as humans, we are predatory, and therefore, by your own logic, it is ok to kill the fox....
the fox is allowed to kill the rabbit, so we must be allowed to kill the fox.
Just catch it in a humane trap and ask nicely for it's body back
Since when is killing vermin immoral?

Blow it up.
Get a better fence around the garden
We have our male sheepdog to fence away from the chickens -he looks more like a wolf than a dog
Had to get a thicker fence after he gnarled his way through the old one and killed 4/6 chickens
You should train your dog better, a working animal that kills should be destroyed.
Since when did we need to kill a fox to eat and survive? We are hardly predatory. I wouldn't call the mass-breeding and slaughtering of chickens, for example, predatory.
If the OP had no other means of getting food, then yes, killing it to eat and survive would be a matter of predation. That, however, is not the case. This is about removing the fox because it is a bother.
Apples and Oranges, I'm afraid.
And don't go visiting my logic. Thank you.
LOL
