Take about making a mountain out of a mole hill, but deal he killed a fox during the summer, each to their own, why cause such a roar, beats me.
If the said fox was causing damage to live stock then I would have done same, try tell the farmer that summer foxs are not on the list until winter and that he will just have to watch his stock been attacked until then, your ass wont touch the ground as he kicks you out.
Come on lads be sensible.
