Well, I lived for sixteen years in the country near Lichfield (England), in a mixed farming area. One of our friends buys (bought, rahter; I think he's packed it in since the F&M) lambs and fattened them up on his own farm and any spare land on other local farms. There are foxes, I've seen them; there hasn't been a hunt since before the war, but I've never heard of any lambs being taken. Everyone seemed to manage all right.
