Dead Foxes.

I’ve seen absolutely loads of dead foxes by the road today, so has the wife. I wonder if it’s anything to do with that moon last night? Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto

Present: Audi A3 S Line.

The 'Moon' was billed as a “Super Wolf Blood Moon”

Wolf ..... not Fox Whistle

My girl friend would be interested in how they came to die as she is starting a vendetta against the four that are tunnelling under her garden. Everyone can spread it - Anyone can catch it. Stay home - the life you save can be your own!

The dog hunting fraternity who slide out of low life in surbubia have been known kill with ratting type dogs mr fox and badger then throw out at side of road to make it look like road kill. Sad way to get a buzz in my opinion. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years
FL2 MY13 TD4 GS Current

United Kingdom 2014 Freelander 2 SD4 SE Auto Santorini Black

I've heard that too Yorky. I've heard of groups who will check any reported carcass for signs of abuse and report it to the Police. Just no excuse for that sort of behaviour towards animals. Learned to drive in 2011.
Bought a Micra - great little car
"Upgraded" to Kia Sportage - hated it
Proper upgrade to FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - tailgate paint issues, fuel gauge rewire, transfer box failure at 36k miles, clutch at 60k
Reconditioned diff at 70k ish
Sold at 84k and now on a DS. Terribly unreliable.
Sold DS for a 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Fingers crossed....
Sold Outlander for a 2014 SD4 SE Tech because I’m mental

Time of year with food shortage leading to Mr. Fox casting his net further into unfamiliar areas also dog fox now thinking of finding vixens. If it wasn't so bad it'd be funny.

January is generally regarded as when the dogs foxes will start searching out any breeding vixens, they've been recorded as traveling over 20 miles a night looking,
although I'm not sure if that's still true give how our winters are so short.
it's also regarded as a good indicator that the fox population is strong.

What he said ^

As for running a fox in the garden Rolling with laughter Cage traps or a snare would be far ore effective. D4 HSE Lux for me
FL2 HSE Zermatt & Alpacca for the wife now gone
Skoda Yeti L&K for the wife.
