These animals keep down the rodent count and are struggling to survive as it is... Leave them alone...

We need to co-exist. In addition, we need to use ethical means of dealing with this situation, both for wild animals and domestic animals. Trapping is not the answer.

I love just across the river from Bath, but spend a great deal of time in Bath, including in the area that has been most affected by the foxes, so I am interested and could well be impacted by rabid animals. I am appalled that so little effort was made to research the problem prior to the unanimous vote. This was an extreme solution based on little fact finding, and a "solution" that is unlikely to result in abolishing the rabid fox problem.

Please manage the issue differently. Trapping and moving is not a solution either as you would be moving the animals from their food sources, etc. please learn to cohabitate

This is wrong and isn’t the answer, from someone who was bitten by a rabid fox!

Upsetting the natural balance of rodents and predators is not the best way to control rabies!

Artificially altering the balance of nature could very well lead to more and bigger problems. Find a different way.

There must be a more humane way to handle this. Respect that these foxes share our land, they have as much right to a life as you do!

Why can’t they just be relocated if they are healthy? Why must they be euthanized?

There is, and a better way Must be used to Help these animals. Killing is NOT the answer. We need to Help, not slaughter them.
