Nice photo!
I have shot one fox and one bobcat (mounted each). I won't shoot any more because I simply like having them around. Coyotes are far and away my main problem.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

Nice pic. I like those little fox. They eat mice more than anything else so they always get a pass from me.

Good game camera pic!
I occasionally flip past that Life below zero show. That tough lady that lives alone at an oil camp has foxes that will come inside and watch TV with her. Ultimate low maintenance, cool pet.

Great pic that fox has a beautiful coat, maybe a future stole for the Mrs.

Neat little animals. We have one that comes through our subdivision quite often.

I shot one about 10 years ago with the intent on having it mounted. There wasn't enough left to mount. I always felt kind of guilty for shooting it. They're pretty entertaining to watch

We have four at camp in Telegraph that are waiting every evening for us to return from the afternoon hunt. I buy 3 pound packs of Bar S hot dogs and they will come within 4 feet of us to fetch the weenies.

Like others, I like having them around and don't shoot them (have several that hang around my house). If you've ever seen one go all out for a rabbit, their speed and agility is amazing. But, be careful getting too close, they're prone to rabies. My aunt was attacked (sort of) by a rabid one a few years ago. Didn't end up getting bit, but close.
