A lovely family scene... by robz

A lovely family scene...

Unless you happen to be part of the family of the native animal in his mouth! And that is what makes it so hard......
Wonderful.

They shouldn't be there should they?! Vermin in suburban areas here, so in the outback most deadly. Friend in WA shoots them on his farm!!

Having said that it's s great photo Rob!

What's the gridded box for, is it s trap?

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Hi Jackie - yes it's a cat trap - we have lots of feral cats too - and they're terrible predators on a huge range of native animals. I can catch cats in the trap - but not foxes - they're too clever! Worse luck! :)

Oh no, foxes are such a problem in Oz. Amazing to see them like this.

Oh dear!

Fascinating to watch but a bit of a pest.

This a great capture! I haven’t seen any foxes in the wild for quite a while. Have seen the odd one in urban areas.

I know people don't like them as they also prey on their cat and small dogs. But we are on their territory :-) I just love them and keep my cat indoor :-)

Love this family capture. We get foxes, but I only see them in singles.

Wow what a capture
November 17th, 2021  
Wow, you got the entire family. Great shot.

Quite a scene to capture. Shame it’s killed a native animal.

Hi everyone - and thanks for your comments and favs. I just wanted to add that I'm in Australia and unfortunately this is a pretty heart-breaking photo for me. We have a "Land for Wildlife" property and this photo was caught on a wildlife camera. So this expanding feral family is living on our property and killing our wildlife. And it's extremely hard to get rid of them - they won't go into a cage and using poisons is quite horrible. It's a very difficult situation. Thanks for your understanding. :)

I wanted to write that you found it miraculously. But I guess you have a problem.

@robz Oh so sorry to hear. It sounds like they don’t have a natural predator to keep them in check.
