RE: It just wouldnt die!!!!
I've trap 1000+ fox in my life and 1 shot with little old .22 short right in ear area at 10' puts them down for good. I've also whack a few yote with the .220 swift never really had problems like you guys are talking. I, also shot a few of them both with scatterguns chased by dogs and either missed or planted them. 12 ga 5 shot turkey loads. 35 yds or closer.

While out lamping once we shot a fox with a .243 at about 60yds. It ran on and we chased it and managed to hit it with the truck. We were 100% certain it was dead but when we reached the farm it was breathing again! A lump of wood finished the whole affair.

last summer my cousin shot at weisle through the neck with his 17hmr the thing was alive still so he picked up a big rock and thumped it one. ( this is a small weisle) he wanted to show his parents so he threw it on the tail gate of the truck and after looking at it for a bit we reliazed the thing was still breathing.

I know this old timer that said he was out calling one day and called in a yote. Well he said he took a shot at it , and he said the scope was knocked off sight. But anyway he shot the poor pooch's leg off and it took off running into the brush. A few seconds later the dog came back, picked his leg up in its mouth and took off into the brush again. Man, that would have been crazy to see.

RE: It just wouldnt die!!!!
while out pheasant hunting last year we had one running infront of us down the corn rows. when it finally came out in the open field 3 of us shot it 8 times with 4-6 shot pheasant loads. the final killing shot came from a 20 gauge. the three of us that shot it were ready for it to run out because the guys walking the corn rows could see it crossing back and forth between the rows so they warned us. it was one tough cookie
