biggest one my dog caught was way back in the 90,s weighed in at 24lb and was . in tip top condition which raised a question with me as it was a fairly easy course on land that normally with the flick of a lamp sent foxes scarpering! i brought the fox home for a lad who did a bit of taxidermy and a week or so later phoned me up to say that the fox had a metal plate in its jaw! so it had obviously been released and thatswhy it was in good nick and easy for dog -billy
