Default Foxes (again)



wrote in message
...
Was clearing the boys' raised bed today and whilst weeding out a bunch of
onions and last year's potatoes that I had forgotten were there, I found
...
a chicken breast. (at least, I think it was chicken) It looked quite
fresh, although the soil was undisturbed, so it could have been there a
while and preserved by the cold, I guess.

Do foxes bury 'spare' food to come back to later? I've never found
anything
like this before.

Yes, I once spiked two gammon ham steaks whilst digging my allotment and
often found duck eggs.
All looked fresh enough to eat.
