Back on the 15th January I noted how the total number of fox deaths on the roads in Bristol for January 2023 was 11. I noted that at that time the total number of fox deaths for January 2024 was 14.
It is the 26th and the total number of fox road deaths stands at 22. Sadly, with better reporting I suspect that the total number of fox deaths reported is going to exceed 2023. The UK as far as wildlife over and under passes is concerned has no interest. Delaying traffic to prevent otter, badger, fox, deer and other mammal deaths is out of the question. The other favourite cop-out is "who is going to pay for all of this?"
Eventually we are going to lose more and more wildlife to cars as well as rodenticides and so long as it does not interrupt or interfere with TV programmes...who cares?
