RE: Red Fox Fight

That 3rd picture with them tooth to tooth is really neat..

RE: Red Fox Fight

wow... thos are some impressive pictures man... wait till the season and make one of them into a nice trophy pelt for above the fireplace!

RE: Red Fox Fight

Those are some good pics. They look like two youngsters that are feeling frisky! Those summer coats sure are slick.

RE: Red Fox Fight

Awsome pics did you notice that ufo in the background on that last pic.

RE: Red Fox Fight

awesome pics...beautiful lookin' critters...thanks for sharing.

RE: Red Fox Fight

You should send that one in for those contests they have for best pics.

RE: Red Fox Fight

That 3rd pic is really cool. I wonder why they'd be fighting? Over food? Maybe they were just playing or being territorial?

RE: Red Fox Fight

I liked the 3rd picture also.The pics turned out very nice.What camera setup you using?

RE: Red Fox Fight

That thrid picture is awesome! What camera are you using? It is pretty dark, yet the flash lit them up great. Oh, and thanks for sharing!

RE: Red Fox Fight

Cool pics right there. Chances are slim of catching something like that.

RE: Red Fox Fight

In the second pic there was a coon laying on the ground behind them and you don't see it in the others, where the pics in order? I noticed in the first pic there were a set of green eyes about five feet off the ground, but I didn't notice a tree,, very cool pics thanks for the share, I hope I get some like that with my cam..

RE: Red Fox Fight

My bad there was no coon,, I had a small picture to look at once I enlarged it I saw it was just the fox tail....

RE: Red Fox Fight

Sweet pics man, thanks for sharing.

RE: Red Fox Fight

Those are some great pics....espcially the 3rd one! You should send that one into a contest!

RE: Red Fox Fight

Those are some very impressive pics, I like number 3 the best...those teeth!!

RE: Red Fox Fight

Those are some awesome pictures! I have never gotten much beyond deer on my trail cams...not to mention two foxes fighting. Thank you very much for sharing the pics. They are great.

RE: Red Fox Fight

Glad everyone liked the pics.I feel that I owe all of you some after all the pics that everyone else hasshared,and I enjoy looking at the pics.These are my first setthat I haveposted because I never new how to.I got these pics and my wife showed me how to post them.
I believe the fox were fighting over a red apple.I got a sour apple tree in my yard and I got a bucket of those and one red apple that was in the house that I needed to get rid of so I threw it in with them.I did not post the first pic but it is one of the foxes standing over the red apple like he's fixing to eat it.The next pictures are the ones I posted with the other fox jumping into the picture.The red apple was the only apple that was touched(gone),and i'm thinking since their was only one they faught over it.I guess nothing in my woods liked the sour apples.
The camera I used was the Moultrie camera from Wal-Mart for about $100.Those were my first set with it and i'm pretty impressed with it.It takes a little getting used to because it's like it zooms in all the pictures so you have to scoot the camera back farther away than you want the picture to be taken from.If you guys think it's worthy to be entered in a contest then I will enter it.Just let me know how to go about it.
I was told to not kill any of the red fox because theirs not many in existence anymore.Not sure how true this is but I did'nt want to finish them off.The way I understood it was that the coyotes breed with them and mostly all you see anymore is fox/coyote mix.Anybody know if this has any truth to it?I live in North Alabama if that helps any.
Again thanks for all the replies.

Coyotes like to eat foxes but I've never heard of them breeding with them. If your red fox population is decreasing, chances are the coyotes are wiping them out. Here in Maryland, the red foxes live mainly in the lowlands and the grays live in the mountains. We have coyotes too, but I think the fox population remains pretty high...

RE: Red Fox Fight

Coyotes either run or eat the fox out of the gene pool. We used to have a good number of fox where I live, now if you see one every few years you are lucky. I wish I could find one for my fullbody mount......

Great pics by the way!
