There are three foxes behind the farmhouse and Jaf wants to shoot them. They are a threat to next season's lambs. Jaf and Murray are out in Somerset with rifle and night vision, keeping livestock safe.

Why shoot foxes?
The British red fox is widespread across the whole of mainland Britain and Ireland. The best estimate of the current British fox population is 240,000 adults in spring, to which a production of 425,000 cubs is added annually. The fox has no natural predator and for the population to remain stable, 425,000 foxes must therefore die each year.
Fox numbers need to be managed and controlled to prevent the predation of lambs, piglets reared outdoors, free range and domestic poultry. Foxes can also have a significant impact on vulnerable species of ground nesting birds such as black grouse, partridge, lapwing and curlew (Bealey, Green, Robson, Taylor & Winspear, 1999). Overall, the direct cost to UK agriculture from fox predation has been estimated at £12 million annually (UK Government figures)
In order to protect livestock and vulnerable prey species while they are breeding, conservationists and gamekeepers aim to control fox numbers, particularly from late winter to early summer. Foxes are also controlled around pheasant and partridge rearing and release pens in late summer and autumn.
