RE: Red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) were introduced to Australia for sport hunting in the 19th century, but ended up being responsible for the extinction of several native species, including the desert rat-kangaroo (Caloprymnus campestris)

Thanks for introducing a new specie.Red fox seems very dangerous in Australia.I never knew they were dangerous .Australia should do something to get rid of these fox.Are you from australia?

You're welcome. No, I'm not from Australia. I'm located in Norway, pretty much at the opposite end of the world!

They should absolutely do something about it, but it is more difficult than you can imagine to get rid of a whole continent filled with foxes.
