Digger fox

[Rosko]

Well its confirmed I have a digger fox on my hands, went to check my traps and for the second day in a row my 1 trap was dug up , so now its time to put in a blind set and see if I can stop this critter from doing that.

Are you sure its not a coon?
they like to dig around in loose dirt and flip traps

[Rosko]

no its a fox the track is clear

did it just uncover your trap or flip it out of the way?  i had on uncovered today i hate that.  i suspect it was a coon but not pisitive.  my trap had to stink it had 4 coon in it this week.  hope you get it in the blind set.  a urin post near by might get it.

good luck

Just uncovered the trap so far, I thought about a urin post set but went with the blind set ,I will a see how it works out .

Try setting your trap upside down.A little tricky but it works.

well it looks like the digger fox is going to live.    I receaved a phone call yesterday after supper and it was the land owner , he called to ask me to remove my traps that 1 of his neibers dog got in 1 of my traps. He appoligized and said I know you asked if this would be a problem when you ask for permition to trap and  I said no. So I go to pull my traps only to find the 1 the dog was in is smashed , the lady let her dog out and smashed my trap with a rock  . so now I go to the land owner who by the way is a friend of mine and tell him now we have a problem. he says he will make thing right with me and will talk to the lady . be for I left he told me you know you are welcome back here any time to hunt . not sure what to do now, let it go because he is a freind and I can go back there and at lease hunt fox and coyote , or contact the PGC which could stir up trouble and I may loss a hunting spot .
