Okay to answer your question lets distinguish between two commonly confused canines. The Red Fox is a small to medium sized canine that lives in North America; It is not endangered. The Red Wolf is a species of critically endangered canine endemic to Ethiopia and the surrounding areas in mountains.



The Red Fox is hunted in sport. It is legal to hunt and kill a red fox in certain areas and countries. This is wear the term fox hound was coined, a dog that aided in the tracking and killing these foxes. So to answer your question, the Rex Fox is hunted in sport. Its like hunting a deer or a bear.



What I think you are talking about is the Ethiopian Wolf, also known as the Red Wolf. The Red Wolf, as I said, is a critically endangered species of jackal from Africa. They are being hunted because, although officially they are a protected species, they were killed during Ethiopia's period of instability due to the increased availability of firearms. So because more people had fire arms, more wolves were killed. The only real hunting of the Red Wolf came from an incident in Wollo, where the wolves were poached, and their skin used as saddle pads. The Red Wolves are also sometimes hunted when they attack livestock too.



Hope I answered your question!
