Terrible hunter - sucks

This fox can't catch a cold...

 

 0-3 on squirrels and doves

Look at the timestamps.

He does look healthy and well fed, must be living on roadkill.   LOL

Set up downwind. Mouth squeaks should bring him right in.

I can easily shoot 2 - 3 foxes every sit in that stand if I want.  I usually only sit there when  I am on a good buck, like the one I shot in October.  Have barely hunted it since - kids in neighbood  got all new quads and ruined it for entire rut and even now, they are still riding through bedding area all xmas vacation.  

Get a few bucks at night is all.

If you got turkeys there in the spring I suggest removing a few of those fox. 

As for the kids/quads.....I cant put that in writing. Lol

Awesome pics

Timestamps tell the story, but video mode would be better

probably, i often have as many as 4 at a time on the cam.  Best was one morning hunt, watched one make three trips of fresh bloody red meat in it's mouth, bury it in 3 different places.    Saw which way he went off.  Then one of it's buddies came by  via a different path, and dug one up and stole it

15 years ago saw several quite often - haven't seen one in several years though.

Cool pics Jack. Agreed, that fox is slower than molasses draining out of a jug on a cold winter day...

 He is not a terrible hunter just getting lazy hunting over bait piles

Thanks JH...I knew you would like that one ...LOL

It has short legs and cannot run fast enough.  Must be living on field dressing of deer.

They eat a lot of corn  especially the younger ones that don’t know how to hunt. That might explain the size and slowness
