Cheers Well i don't advocate releasing it......and to be honest you shouldn't be attempting to catch any animal that you are unsure about humanely dispatching. Quote Link to post
ellir0305 9 Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 i agree with rolfe about doing your homework first and really the fox should be causing a problem befroe it should be removed (in an urban environment that is) but a .22 rimfire (NOT AIR RIFLE!!!!) to the head at point blank range will be an outright kill a 12 bore to the same place would do the trick to but would be very messy and loud Quote Link to post
