      If you lived in the country and kept chickens you would soon now why if a fox gets in with your hens it will kill as many as it can not just one to feed its family.

      @@weaton25 There are other ways to prevent animals from getting to your livestock though. I understand some people feel they gotta do what they gotta do to protect their livestock. Having a merry jaunt shooting animals where they live while they run terrified is much different.

    When these animals are caught, it must be a pretty frightening experience for them. Imagine the relief when they gradually realize that maybe this isn't a bad thing. That's why I love to see them eat. Poor thing looked so hungry.

    Well done Simon, on crafting an ideal _"Fox Intimidator",_ that will make any fox cub turn and run straight into a net in the opposite direction, haha. _(No really, it was a good idea and I could have seen it perfectly for the purpose you intended._ 🤭 _)_

    Foxes are my favourite animal and I'd absolutely LOVE one as a pet but down here in Australia it is illegal so naturally I'm super jealous of anyone that DOES have a pet fox and it's how I'll feel until my dying day. I I have a lovely sized plush fox that I keep on my bed to keep me company when I sleep and it's is great for hugging. I have a nice sized collection of other fox themed items like more plush toys, some books, and figures etc but I can't expand it because I have limited space :(
