Fox numbers


Recommended Posts

Has anyone noticed the amount of foxes about, I have been seeing more and more while out bushing during the day, but have nothing to run them, anyway while out lamping last night we counted 16 foxes, alot of them young, but still this is mad numbers for this area, anyone else seen a boom in numbers?

This time of year you should expect to see a lot of foxes. The first few weeks of the season we always get good numbers with the terriers and hounds but once the riflemen have a month at them they soon thin out. Come janurary you won't be saying that as they will have every fox in the country shot.

Aye, don't take a genius to work out that at that rate they'll all be gone but the rifle gang are too thick to realise. They just keep shooting, dumb as they are, & then wonder where the foxes have all gone.

Dont get the shooting thing, you could have shot every fox i seen last night, all well within range, and standing still. Fair enough if it's pest control, but lads are pulling up at gate's on permission they dont have, bang bang, and DRIVE to next gate, lazy hunting if you ask me, no sport.

I can see through it if there are fellas out there who are having problems with foxes close to their release pens, these foxes need shot but round my way at night there are numerous jeeps seen every night with lazy f**ks hangin out of windows shooting. They'd be a poor shot if they wern't hitting 30 cubs a week for the first few months of the season.

 

On the other hand if i was out as much as them and lifted two foxes in a week with my lurcher on the lamp i'd be a very happy man.

most rifle lads round here will walk past foxes. in case there is a deer round the next bit. plenty foxes where i go. but there always is this time of year. winter barley is ready. so should go down in the next good spell. season is nearly on us i'm glad i have waited. hopefully it'll pay off over the next few months.
