In Australia, foxes are an introduced species. They are believed responsible for the complete extinction of at least 10 native Australian species, and may cause more before they and the Australian ecosystem adapt to one another.
In general, people consider foxes a nuisance because they hunt and will prey on chickens in a coop as readily as wild prey, and whenever human property, food and for-profit industries are at risk, wildlife tends to get targeted for extermination.
A number of foxes are on the endangered species list, as foxes are a popular target for sport hunters (hunters who kill for the thrill and for 'trophies' in the form of pelts or taxidermied carcasses, instead of for food).
