Are foxes dangerous
to pets?
Lamping is a loose term that covers a number of different activities. However, they all take place at night and they all result in the murder of wildlife in the British countryside.
It really depends on what pet(s) you have. Foxes are predators of course and get hungry like the rest of us. They may prey on small pets like rabbits, chickens, guinea pigs etc, but if you have foxes in your area and take the right precautions to ensure these animals are secure and kept out of danger, they will normally be safe though.
It’s very uncommon for a fox to attack a dog, and most adult cats are usually safe. However, if a fox feels cornered or threatened by another animal, then they will defend themselves.
