| In Wyoming, red fox can and do kill lambs. Usually while the rest of the flock stand around and watch or stampede over the nearest cliff. |

| Last summer I had a litter of red fox near my barn. I would seem them wandering around aimlessly in broad day light. I got close enough to see that they had mange bad enough to be missing a good bit of their fur. I considered shooting them to be putting them out of their misery. One I missed stood still for the 2nd shot. I have been slow to my piont, sorry. It is not real common for fox to be out in the middle of a pasture in daylight, I would consider it to be diseased if it is seen often or behaving strangely |

| I don't think the youngster will both your lambs. There is NO shortage of red fox in Bucks Co. I'm in Hilltown and I saw 11 in one night, they're everywhere. Wish more people would hunt/trap 'em. |

| Just remember this, that young Fox will be a grown Fox soon and Foxes will always return to a food source which will soon consist of your Lambs. Shoot the Bastard!  Happy Hunting.. Mick |
