Ye pal foxes do take lambs but being truthful they get the blame for it also when badgers are taking them as well in fact over the last few years i think badgers now are causing more problems than foxes but as you know there'sΒ nothing we can do about it and its the same with Ravens but same again nothing we can do about it. 17 hours ago, Spr1985 said: Another cracking video Simon, the velvety covering on the crow decoys I believe is called flocking ππ» Ye thanks pal you are right.

Ye thanks pal you are right. I can certainly back that statement about Badgers. There are loads of them on my perm. and I have actually seenΒ them dragging a lamb carcass around. But dont tell Mr Packham, it might upset him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
