If you net every hole, the one that you didn't see is the one that the fox comes out of !!

 

The fish syndrome, the one that got away was the biggest wolf like fox you ever did see..

 

It'll always be the smallest vixen in the tighest hole that will do the most damage to your terrier...

 

there will never be scent on a fox if you've got visitors.....

 

all guarateed earths will be empty if you promise someone a dig........

 

If you take a tail of one, and put it in your pocket you're guaranteed to forget about it and it will stink to high hell next time you put that coat on...

Can live to 12 years in captivity, but usually only reach about 3 years in the wild.
