    kill the fox but their dogs were killed too. In some of the neighbouring Parishes not one dog was left. The people did not know what to do. Some men who were fishing along the coast said that there was a tree in the place where the fox jumps out and that there were the tracks of the foxes teeth in it. Some people cut the tree and the next time the fox jumped out the bank of the sea he was killed that ended the foxes.
