Last night coming home in the early hours I saw a vixen with a large cub following , the vixen was carrying something she saw me and dropped it. I went and had a look and it was the head neck of and adult fox Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skull Hooker 185 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Same as that. I've gone to get em the next morning and I found one that another fox had tried to cache it by burying it. They're not shy of a bit of cannibalism. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neil cooney 10,416 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 I wouldn't put anything past a vixen when rearing cubs. They're great providers and if other food sources are scarce then I would believe cannibalism would be an option even if the fox probably was a roadkill. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
