Sorry, fox. The ducks win.

Great job. Thank goodness we don't have foxes or at least any we have seen.

What a handsome fox! I'm glad that you caught him so that your ducks will be safer. Congratulations, and good luck with your flock.

Releasing him far, far away in the country.

Nononono! I live far away, in the country. Don’t do that to us country folk. You’re just exporting a killer, to feed on some other unsuspecting flock of sweet birdies.

He’s about 30 minutes out in the country from our house now. If he comes back, I’ll have a shotgun welcoming party.

A near by wildlife park spray paints a blue spot on the tip of the skunk tails before they drive and release to see how far they travel back. Sadly it is several miles. However it could help to know how many trapped.

Sorry! We’re in the country, too. He’s in the deep sticks now. Unfortunately, he was an active threat to mine and had to go.

That’s a good idea! North Carolina has some ambiguous laws on trapping in situations like this and it was my first time with a fox. Might start spray painting critters

That’s what varmit tags and that shotgun you mentioned are for.
