Transcript
Whats the name of the invasive species?
Common: Fox Scientific: Vulpes
The red fox is orginates from Europe.
Was the species relocated by human intervention?
Foxes were introduced into Austraila initially for the purpose of recreational fox-hunting. Australia's roots were british< a country where fox-hunting had been carried out for hundreds of years,but only "sport"that hunters had was dingoes and kangaroos. Brining foxes to the new country enabled them to still indulge their sport of fox-hunting.
How does the red fox affect the ecosystem of Australia ?
The fox has made a huge impact on the delicate ecosystems of Australia. This feral creature has killed to the extent of bringing to the brink of endangerment many native animals. They also kill lambs, sheep and livestock in rural and farming areas, costing the Australian Economy millions of dollars annually by hunting lambs and being a pest to farmers. They spread blackberry (an introduced plant and a pest) seeds in droppings as in the summer they eat the berries due to availability of resources. They compete against native predators, such as eagles, and in the past have competed with Tasmanian Devils, once abundant throughout the mainland, now only found in Tasmania, and the now extinct Thylacine - Tasmanian Tiger - Tasmanian Wolf.
How do the red fox impact the humans?
Foxes aren’t dangerous to humans, except when they are rabid (which is very rare) or are captured and handled. Even then, it takes a lot of handling for a fox even to defend himself by biting. Quite the opposite: the fox’s natural tendency is to flee rather than fight.
Should red foxes be relocated
In my opion red foxes should not be relocated due to the fact that there not harmful to human and they hae been taken advantage of in there real. They have been used for fur coats and hunting games . Red foxes should just be left alone for once.
