That's not bullshit, that's brilliant! If we can convince the bunny-hugging townies that there are giant mutated killers wandering around the countryside they might stay tucked up in their safe little concrete jungle and stay out of my way!
There's also an advantage to the increasing urban fox population. Let numbers increase and eventually the majority of people (who say they don't like the killing of foxy but actually don't give a shit) will get fed up with their bins being ripped open, their gardens shat in, their pets being eaten and being woken up at night by the screaming.
