    This is not a spoof....honestly.

    A taxidermist in our area has told a friend that a shooter left a fox with him to be mounted.

    From tip of nose to tip of tail it was approximately six feet long!

    I have not seen it myself but look forward to viewing the finished work. Can you believe this?

    I can't blame you for saying that. I understand where you are coming from but this is meant to be true.

    Two weeks ago I was out lamping and picked up a fox which we called into about 120yrds. It was a big dog fox, I kid you not when I say it was the size of an alsatian. We didnt shoot it because as I have staed previously I like to see older foxes on the shoot. But part of me wasnt sure if this wasnt a dog and I wasnt taking any chances

    Solid choice.
