Really good video mate, great job

I once lost 20 chickens in one night and in the morning the chicken bodies were still there beheaded and warm. Deadly!

[@stevencox75]

if trapping feral cats i recommend Woolworths home brand sardines in tomato sauce and covering the trap with anything so they think its safe like a log, ive caught quiet a few that way, still cant get a fox to walk in my old trap might be time to get an open ended trap to get them in

Hi I hope your Chanel grow

[@SuperRiverRat1]

Any fox that enters my trap will be going for a dip in the pool, trap and all. Not a chance I will be waiting for a vets call out fee.

if there s a fox in my trap I'm killing it

[@sallyjandric8260]

And I am sorry to the lady who lost her beloved chickens I love too all my pets, but we humans need to stop taking control of natural wild life like this guy telling how to trap a poor fox, leave them alone and if you have pets and know there's foxes around please try to keep your pets safe as I do. Good Luck

[@meowamymeownoam3819]

yes euthanized HaHa why would you kill a nice little fox!

[@WolfgangPatrick]

Taking control of wildlife!? Where do you think your dog came from ? 😭😭you are part of the problem just as much as the next guy 😭

[@MartinRacing42]

Are you out of your mind? Foxes are wiping out native animals. We created the problem by bringing them here. We should be the ones to clean it up

[@janeblaze5885]

Kill the pests

[@zygmuntthecacaokakistocrat6589]

Foxes KILL wildlife, ARE NOT wildlife, are feral pests, destroying ecosystems and livelihoods. You have obviously never been outside you apartment, or had to clean up after their rampages.

[@sallyjandric8260]

I love foxes, and don't want to hurt them or cage them. If you have chickens or other animals that may be in danger lock them up keep them safe. we humans need to stop controlling the natural habitat

[@johncleary1902]

Foxes are an introduced pest to Australia. They are not natural to our landscape and kill everything for fun.

[@brenthemburrow9558]

That is so stupid Sally

[@djdimigaming5324]

Just lost a mother chicken of 4 and one of her babies. That fox now knows where dinner is. Well dinner will be in the cage tonight. No more dinner tomorrow

I love foxes too. I love shooting them, I love baiting them with 1080 & I love running them over when I get the chance.

Avoid eye contact. Relate to captive as a beautiful victim of circumstance. Dig a big hole.
