Sometimes vixens wont move their cubs if theyre young, because theyre more than likely safe in a tight rabbit earth. Never seem to move too much round me until they reach the age were theyre on top most of the time.

Because some respond to nothing less .Never in my life have i known a vixen not to move cubs at the slightest disturbance,ffs you only walk by them down here and they are gone .Not necessarily far but moved all the same.Cant believe foxes are that different across the country .

Only moved then because the earths are stinking with old remains .The cubs spread themselves out as they get older .

true. Some move some dont, depends on the vixen and probably if she was watching or not. Anyone can argue but nobody reallly knows what a fox does because theyre so unpredictable.

I know a few urban and semi urban litters that knew they were being watched and folks walked within feet of there den umpteen times a day yet they were never moved. I've known vixens move litters as well tho

Nah not having that foxdropper is related to David Attenborough and know's all your wrong as well ive just changed my whole way of thinking and doing because of what ive learnt last few weeks on the hunting life haha
