la bala Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 my knowledge of foxes can be written on a postage stamp. i was out with the dog this morning, and we came upon two foxes, which disappeared into deep cover. both of them were about the size of an average vixon. after a few minutes one of them started bark calling only a matter of some thirty yards. would this have been a pair, or young calling their parents. thanks.

camokid Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 i would agree with al .. i was sat up high once on a stack of bricks i was watching a open patch waiting for cubs when the vixen came out under me as soon as she clocked me she went back into cover and started barking i could hear the bushes as the cubs ran back to her ..

Best to try and get the vixen first, makes the cubs easier to sort out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
