flag A judge says federal court must decide if Alabama can kill red foxes to protect sea turtles, halting local action.

flag A Mobile County judge ruled he lacks jurisdiction to block Dauphin Island’s plan to trap and euthanize red foxes on the West End beach, citing federal conservation mandates tied to Deepwater Horizon settlement funds. flag The plan, backed by the Alabama Department of Conservation and USDA’s APHIS, aims to protect endangered sea turtles and birds by targeting foxes that prey on nests. flag The judge said the case belongs in federal court, where plaintiffs may appeal. flag No foxes have been removed yet, and officials say only those preying on wildlife will be targeted, with relocation deemed unfeasible due to disease and aggression risks.
