biffo 0 Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 not sure if this is the right place for this, if its not i apologise. i was wondering how you lads dispose of your fox carcasses. do you bury them, leave them for the carrion birds or bag them up and bin them? also id be interested to know if you bother to take the skins Quote Link to post

Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 When my foxing days were at an all time high ,250+ a year ,then we used an insinerator on a chicken farm .Sadly those days are gone but the insinerator is still there for me . Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Nature is a wonderful thing... ....at the right time of year....... A rabbit will disappear to skin and bone in 24 hours (if Charlie doesn't take it completely)! A fox will go in 2-5 days! And a full grown Roe in 6 days, usually leaving nothing but a bit of spine, odd clumps of fur and perhaps the odd hoof! Quote Link to post
Guest hyperion Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 ive still got the only fox ive ever shot in the freezer! i will get round to skinning it and getting it off to the taxidermy man one day! lol! Quote Link to post
Guest JohnGalway Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 I shoot most every corner in the back end of nowhere. So, I can pretty much leave the fox where he falls. If I think someone will happen along that way I find a discreet ditch or swampy patch and deposit him there. I appreciate people here shoot over much more travelled lands than I do, if I were seen burying a fox here they'd call the men in white coats to pick me up Quote Link to post
