Before people start about how cruel it is. Having spoken to the farmer, he expressed concern at the condition of both foxes caught. They were in a very poor state ....either through some disease (mange, TB maybe?} They were probably starving, and risked the trap to get the dead hen out of desperation.
In my view, they are better off shot than starving to death, and maybe our poultry will be a bit safer with less foxes around.
