ollie Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Looks like you got her just in time, she looks heavily pregnant. They are a lovely animal but them and pheasant pens don't mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scolopax Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Like foxes they are beautiful creatures but they are also a natural killing machine. In fact if they grew to the size of foxes I think we would all be in trouble Good time to get her, just before she had young. Get a tunnel trap and rub the body around the trap, you may very well get the dog stoat aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been out tonight and saw another one about 100y from where i shot the female so it could well be the other half. Never got a shot at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
