Interesting fox story

[woodmort]

This is interesting on a couple of levels one being that, apparently, there are more foxes being seen during the daylight hours that are not sick. Whether this one was rabid or not won't be known but the woman will have to have the shots as a precaution.

I live in Maryland and i've had foxes charge twice. I had the hens out with me in the daytime and a fox ran right for them while i was standing there! He didnt stop until he was maybe 15ft away and only because i ran at him screaming...no fear i tell ya... and can't trap them for nothing.

That's a dumb fox! Attacking a human? In broad daylight? That's just weird...

Set snares on Monday and caught one Wed. and Thurs. Haven't checked today yet. Using box traps for reds is another story. I'm thinking that fox had to be rabid. Only caught 11 this season the deep snow has curtailed my activities.
