RE: Red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) were introduced to Australia for sport hunting in the 19th century, but ended up being responsible for the extinction of several native species, including the desert rat-kangaroo (Caloprymnus campestris)

Thanks a bunch for making this post to introduce Red Fox that it brought to Australia in 1871 and then it spread across the countries. If RED FOX is legal to hunt then all Australian hunted them whenever they want to get rid out of it. This isn't the best solution since animals are also have right to live. I'm not much fond of animals but justice is for all..!

    It's important to remember that the small species who get eaten by the foxes also have a right to live. And the red fox species as a whole does not really belong in Australia, but species such as kangaroos and koalas do, so I prefer the latter one to stay alive more than the red fox :) Thanks for the comment!
