  2. There are a great many wild animals in this district for example :- deer, badgers, foxes, weasels, rats, rabbits, hares and hedgehogs. The deers go about in twos and threes through the country. Badgers live in holes in ditches. It is very hard to catch them. Foxs live in earths. People shoot them because they eat fowl.
