mackem 26,727 Posted July 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 mac i live in north london and keep terriers and lurchers as some one asked what sort of numbers they were in i get a lot more in town pre ban than i did hunting in the country just as a average between 90 and 120 foxes per year with 3 terriers and 2 lurchers alot done by lurchers flushed from brambles but still a lot of digging as well That was a decent average mate pre-ban,when we used to lamp in the east-end we would normally average 2-3 fox in a few hours Quote Link to post

leegreen 2,173 Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Most of my hunting as a yout was done in and around Greater London. Train tracks, scrubb land, allotments, parks, gardens, grave yards, hospital grounds, watersways and there surroundings, aye Kirstysdad. Kentukey fried Fox's I think there now called, more food on the go in the Cities. Quote Link to post
