Most foxes dug from one burrow

Pal of mine had 6 or 7 in an earth on a railway bank early 80s

Sometimes it depends on where youre hunting,over the years ive come to the conclusion urban foxes are much less terratorial than country foxes,my mate bolted 10 in a few hrs a couple of weeks ago in a relativly small area,and multiple foxes using one large earth or rock pile[ussually steel slag,in our case] isnt that unusual.At one time i noticed a lot of the urban foxes we caught were fairly well scarred on their snouts,no doubt in my mind these marks were from other foxes,but these days theres a ridicilous number of them so maybe they have adapted and changed their behaviour?

a neighbour of mine s young black and tan dog in early stages of his working career entered a large stone drain and pulled out 5 almost fully grow cubs then was dug after going back in lying in the vixen with the dog fox tucked in behind her that was a total of 7 from same place dog took alot of abuse and lost all the hair around his muzzle eyes and ears it grew back after a month or so the said dog carried on in this manner his whole working career and by time he died had lost a lot more than just hair was a good ol dog.

But I heard later that there was a Foxy wedding going on in that particular earth. So 25 of them were probably visiting family.
