Yes, after another archive trawl I have proven via contemporary accounts that Norwegian foxes were imported and in numbers.
I can even give a rough date for when this started.
I can also now prove exactly what I have said for decades; foxes were not just imported by their thousands every year during the 19th century but the reports show that importing foxes was well established in the 18th century.
There is a slightly happy, smug feeling when you can tell the modern experts that they were wrong and prove it.
