I agree Mark, still getting gray fox on camera. The coyotes seemed to have moved to another zip code.I look at it this way. If you have foxes, you generally don’t have a lot of coyotes. At least that’s how it seems to me when trapping. And I’d rather have foxes than coyotes any day.

Your pic does give me a little satisfaction. I just pulled traps last week and didn’t catch a single pup. That means one of two things, I either really suck at trapping or didn’t have a breeding pair on the property. I’m hoping for the later.Unfortunately, I have way too many coyotes and now I have one on camera with a litter of at least 3 new pups roaming all over. I have had trail cameras out for 9 plus years now and I have only seen one or two foxes in all of these years and they were back in the beginning as there has NOT been single photo of a fox in at least 8 years now. I would much rather have foxes than having all of these coyotes roaming around all hours of the day and night over all of these years.

Yes i feel the same way. I took 3 males and a female. No pups to be seen. So although i didn't remove a ton I took enough to keep them from reproducingYour pic does give me a little satisfaction.
