Fox at feeder

[Radar]

I doubt a fox would tangle with a Raccoon, at least not the big dudes we have steeling corn. Frankly, I would be more concerned with a big Raccoon than a fox. Deer are strange, some will eat with a fox around some will not. I doubt the fox has anything at all to do with seeing bucks. Mature bucks simply do not register them as a threat.

-Edit - If you have any Turkey around you need to get on top of killing both fox and coons, quickly.

Did not mean coons, I was talking about mice, squirrels and rats. Bobcats are harder on Turkeys than foxes or coyotes, coons will destroy turkey nests. NWTF has done a study on turkey killers and I was surprised by some of the info. Maybe I can find a link.

I've watched deer chase fox and bobcats, looked like they kinda enjoyed shoving the little guys around. On the other hand I've also seen a few deer killed by bobcats!

He probably already ate all your deer.

Now you don't want this to happen.

I've seen a big grey fox kill axis fawn out west before. So they will take them.

Had one recently making a habit of eating the corn at one of our feeders as well. Was there everyday till my son caught him in the act and gave him a dose of 6.5CM.

What does the fox say?

I’ve watched a few yearling feed under the feeder with a big grey fox not more than 5 yds away feeding as well. They didn’t seem nervous or intimidated at all! It was actually kind of fascinating.

Grey foxes will eat corn as well.

Yep and rice bran and winter food plots. Seen it myself

I have literally watched a fox eat corn within just a few feet of deer and the deer were not alarmed at all. Literally like 6 feet away from the deer. The deer had zero concern for the fox.

I was shocked, at the time I was under the impression that deer were scared of fox. I have it on film somewhere.

Had this one come pretty close, deer were alert but didnt spook. Fox was running around all over the place, making a chirping noise while sucking up corn. Also have pics of them in food plots, like ging stated.
