Terror from Above

Now let me say right from the start that I am not in favour of hunting foxes with hounds, nor do I really want a return to jolly hockey sticks types in red coats chasing across the countryside. However there is a serious fox problem where I live, Reynard and his pals are forever rooting through the bins, although how they think they'll get away with any kind of identity theft I just don't know, and according to Mister Pogle the railway from here to Southend is carpeted with their pelts. So too many foxes and no real control over them because people are kind of sentimental about Basil Brush. Bet they wouldn't be quite so keen if they'd seen any number of lambs with their throats torn out or the utter devastation foxes can cause to a chicken run.
Anyway foxes are becoming a problem in urban areas along with so many other pests - rats, assorted creepy-crawlies and burberry covered folks....
My proposal to the problem - Hunting with trained Pterodactyls (you can't breed bats big enough) Just think of the "shock and awe" that would create in Romford on a Saturday afternoon as a Pterodactyl swoops out of the clouds and carries off a screaming chavette bling from Argos glittering in the wintery sunshine...
