A novel strategy for pest control is described in the present study. Together with the implementation of the normal control program of antagonists of hunting species a “reward strategy” aimed at involvement of hunters was implemented to enhance the containing effects on red fox (Vulpes vulpes L.). Exploiting the concept “more foxes killed - more game for restocking”, the territorial hunting areas of Rieti Province (Central Italy), developed two methods to stimulate the killing of foxes by hunters during the hunting season. Five years of application showed good results in terms of foxes killed, with an increased number of foxes killed in the first year of the application of one of the methods implemented.
