YOUR correspondent Jon Burgess (Your Letters, June 25) has misunderstood my attitude to hunting. I had not meant to attack anything or anybody.
I am in my mid-eighties and have seen many changes for better, especially in growing compassion for people and animals. There are many good causes and one cannot support all of them. I therefore decided a long time ago to espouse the cause of animals because they cannot speak for themselves. I am not happy to cast people out of homes and jobs but I do not believe the answer is to carry on hunting. Jon Burgess also assumes I am aiming to save foxes. I know they must be controlled but there must be a better way.
