Sixth of eight programmes on the mammals of Britain Presented by Tony Soper Watching and trying to understand animals is a very perplexing business. Foxes, rabbits and hares are part of our childhood, celebrated in nursery rhyme and fable, and we have a vested interest in there being a healthy population of each species.
But it's far from being a friendly and cosy world, and is very much one of predator and prey.
