Whats the Protocol .Fox got a smack of a car on Upper Leason Street .not killed but bolloxed .Four tourists came to its help as it lay in the bus lane .I pulled in to see what happened as they had it covered with a coat and I thought it might be a child .They rang the Gards who said it was nothing to do with them and the corpo had no body from animal control contactable neither did the DSPCA .I told them to leave it as the next car down the bus lane would take care of it .I suggested that was the most humaine thing to do In fact I offered to drive around and finish it .I know if I had of picked up the Fox and dropped in in the Chamber on the canal I could get charged with animal cruelty but hitting it with the car and I was Ok .What is the correct protocol if you come upon a part worn animal that needs help to die as it is not going to survive you are putting it out of its pain .

Just reverse over it and be done with it.
PS.
Wait till the tourists are crowded around it first for maximum impact.

There is nobody to contact after office hours .If you hit something what do you do if you didnt kill it ?The only humaine thing to do is reverse over it .

I have hit two one ran out of the Golf Course near Goatstown and another jumped out of a bin across from Hanlons Corner .The town is over run with them I saw two of them sitting outside the GPO they live in the cellars of the old houses in Abbey Street and live out of Super Macs bins .
-
the Garda armed response might put a bullet in its head maybe? i saw the Uk armed response did so for a deer that was hit by a car on one of those cop tv shows. I wouldnt reverse over it, you would be better off leaving it to die than crushing it to death under your car.

There's 3 shops on Charlemont St that always make me smile when I drive by.
1st is muttugly - a dog grooming service.
2nd is a Vet's
And the 3rd is a place that sells leather belts.
I guess if you've got a sick dog, you start at the first and work your way down?

@ John, you are right, the most humane thing to do would be to kill the animal.
The P.C. thing to do would be bring it to a vet, the vet would Love you and treat the animal and put all the broken bones in plaster of paris, Etc, but animals don't understand how to rest and the bones would never settle unless it was kept under anesthetic fer months.
Even if the vet did manage to heal the animal (looking at 10K +) and the P.C. brigade had a big camera shoot to show off the healed animal being released in to the wild where it was first hit, most likely with the scent of human on the animals body, it's own kin would either reject it or kill it.
-
The same goes fer all the P.C. nut-jobs breaking in to Coursing clubs and releasing the Hares in the middle of the night.
Did they put any thought in to where the Hares would go ?
No ! They just thought 'Pink n Fluffy' the Hares would just go off and lead a Merry Hare life !
But that is not the way it works in the animal world, a Hare can not just descend upon a rivals territory and expect a friendly welcome, the vast majority of Hares 'successfully' released from coursing compounds were either killed by rival Hares, eaten by Foxes or ended up as Road-kill. There is No asylum center to apply to in the animal world.
Turn the clock back a few hundred years and lets say you were unlucky enough to be captured by African pirates in Ireland (it has happened) and taken by boat as a slave to Africa. Algieria was a favourite back then and lets say you managed to escape or some one released you, How long do you as a white man a few hundred years back think you would survive alone on the streets of Algiers ?

From the information provided by the OP it seems clear that his tuppence worth wasn't sought or required. Given that he felt a need to interfere it would be more helpful if he knew who they could contact to further their objective. He does now... you're welcome, erm.

A man is walking in the woods when he finds a suitcase.
He opens the suitcase and inside are three foxes.
So he calls emergency services and says
"I just found three foxes in a suitcase. What should I do?"
"Well," the operator said, "Are they moving?"
"I don't know," he said, "But that would explain the suitcase."

@ JohnM, did you never read the taxi bible? That's what the first aid kit and fire extinguisher in the boot is for!
You could shine the torch in the foxes eyes and see if there was any reaction.
If yes, bandage it up with the first aid kit.
If no, smack it over the head with the fire extinguisher.
Those NTA people were really thinking ahead when they made us all get those kits :P

Look if a fox found a human dying on the street he would probably eat your fcuking eyes out for starters before he start on the rest of you, last thing he would care about would be to save you, so fook him run the cnut over.

I dont agree, I fell off a tree once and broke my legs, a fox got me a blanket and hot drink, then he called me an ambulance.
