For those of you who have an interest in the urban fox.

Yes I am interested but only in how to get rid of them. They just
killed
my ducks by biting their heads off, didn't eat them just killed them for
sport. I do hope we are not headed for the Spanish experience where
people leave poison bait out which is a danger to domestic dogs who have
to be muzzled or kept on a lead to prevent them form eating the bait. I
have dogs so this is not an option so I guess I will have to look for
someone with a gun.


Alternatively practise good animal husbandry and ensure your ducks are
securely shut away at night in fox proof housing. I breed rare poultry and
have not lost any to the fox. If I did I would be blaming myself for not
providing secure accommodation for the livestock in my care.


Good point. Taking responsibility! Owning the problem! Not blaming someone
else....well done!
But I'm wondering... "have not lost any to the fox..." The fox? There is
only one fox? Must be a biggie...
