Sharpshooter.123 Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Right guys..... Went out for a couple of hours decoying over spring drilling this afternoon, only got 2 but I was out of the house. When I was packing up and picking up my empties I noticed what looked like dead cats from a distance, as I got closer I realised they were fox cubs, not a Mark on them why do you think they were there?? They could have only been 2 weeks old MAX all of them were females Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Either someone had dealt with them or the parents shot and they startved but I'd expect them to have died down the hole in that case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmar fudd Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 as al4x said someones shot the parents i'd imagine it happened to us last year i'd been lamping the farm next door to us every night for about a week then one day the owner rang me and he'd found a litter of dead cubs in one of the big feilds after asking around we established they had died because the paerents had been shot and they just couldnt survive on there own :unsure: also he found all 4 i think it was withing 2-3 yards of each other fudd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter.123 Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I think the vixen is still around because I see her late last night there looks nothing wrong with them and I'm the only person aloud to shoot these fields. Would there be more than 1 vixen in the burrows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
