[QUOTE="cyffylog, post: 7816060, member: 53708"] The fox shooting chap who comes here, and many other farms in the locality, is fully equipped like [I][B]Dry Rot's[/B][/I] friend, costing many thousands of £s. Its amazing the view you get through thermal imaging equipment. He uses the electronic fox call device to lure foxes out from cover. He also makes his own ammunition, says the powder charge/trajectory is more consistent. it certainly blows a large hole on exit! The normal level district fox population I can accept and has never been much of a problem at lambing or any other time, but the current explosion of release foxes is a different situation altogether. This has to be stopped. If they think the farming community will just accept it they must be more witless than you imagine. Releasing foxes which will certainly be shot, trapped or untrapped, is inhumane and certainly not in the foxes best interest. My rim-fire 22 is inadequate for field foxing, OK for a head shot in a cage, so hence my search for a 100% successful trap. Dafydd WW [/QUOTE]
