It is believed the fox turned on the boy when he saw the animal's tail sticking out from under a building and tried to stroke it.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Exactly, that's why I quoted that particular line from the BBC link.

One wag rang up radio Brighton today who were having a discussion on this, and posed the question, "I wonder how many children get bitten by their hamsters each year".

FYI the story has changed now, apparently the boy didn't grab its tail or try to stroke it, he was getting his ball according to his father. I think we might just start hearing a few more stories like this now, a link I posted earlier in the thread mentioned people didn't bother reporting attacks because they didn't think they'd be believed, not the case anymore.

Yep nice PR blitz in the run up to a vote. Nothing like lots of press that will help you get your vote through even if its a load of bull plop. Scare the public so they tell there mp to vote so the barbarians can indulge in there blood sport. Alister Campbell heading up this pr blitz by any chance

I'm pretty sure I was taught never to touch wild animals.

I certainly was, but as usual I didn't listen and ended up marrying my first wife.
