You big softyThere's something remarkably tenacious about the smell of fox poo, (and foxes).
I trapped a fox that was after some of my birds a few years back, and an acquaintance was giving me grief not to shoot it and bring it over to his smallholding ten miles away and release it. The wife took his side so I had this humane trap with this big dog fox in the back of my Volvo estate taking it to this bloke's place. It took about half an hour to get the cage in the car with the wife frightened it might bite her, so she insisted in baggering about with some strap arrangement so she didn't have to put her fingers through the mesh... It was a bloody pantomime.
I remember thinking to myself what madness is this I'm involved in, the damn thing could cover 5 miles in a night and be back in two days. But the worst part was the smell in the car lingered for a month after I released it. Probably got fleas in the car, too, damned things are usually riddled with 'em.
Never even got a couple of pints off the bloke either. Next one got some lead in its ear.
