Red Fox in the wild. Last time I seen one wild was in the late 80's. Thing jeted across 50 yards of low cut field grass faster than lightning.

If you have a good coyote population, the foxes will either leave or the coyotes will eventually kill them. For some reason, 'yotes will not tolerate a fox in their hunting territory. Several years ago, red foxes were pretty common around here. I have seen one in the past two years, but we have a substantial coyote population that seems to be gettin more substantial. Come May 10th, I hope to do something about that.

Around my place here we kinda got a 50/50 population of fox and coyotes.

I'm starting to think about hunting pertty hard for them.

I have seen them quite often in Pike Co. Lots of yotes too ! I kill the yotes and let the fox walk. I don't know why. I just don't have a desire to kill anymore fox.

Seen another Red Fox this mornin while walking the hounds, this one was much larger than the one I saw a few months back.


Also saw somptin else this mornin, I know a few of you may be skeptical... But they are here, I now know as I seen one with my own eyes walking around: A LIVING DILLO'... Odd that it was within a 40 yards of a semi truck though, I still suspect them things to be stowaways than migrators.

There's a dillo conspiracy, some would have you believe they are migrating.. But I have the inside, there's a diabolical plan a foot. It's too late to fight, lambs to the slaughterhouse we are. The dawn of the Dillo is near.

Be weary of areas around semi trucks. beee weaaary!
