like the old gin traps

[Rolfe 2]

Possibly trying to free itself from a snare?

Could be anything really, possibly an RTA?

No road for a mile or so, my thought was gin trap / snare, poor fecker must have been in serious pain though.

might have gone under a car, have seen marks like that on ones dead at the side of roads,

I wouldnt rule out it being an RTA, an injured fox can travel a long way, the other thing is there is a railway line close by. Thinking about it, if it had been a snare then there would be a ring around the leg wouldnt their?

Snare. Looks like the skins come of clean as it broke free. Looks like a clean ring from the fur to me.

might be infection from a wound or something similar,,,once lamped a fox that had part of its hind leg missing but it had healed over didn't slow it down by much gave my dog the run around before she banged it.
