When is the best time to go spotlighting for fox shooting? Thanks?

Question

Just thought I'd add I'm not doing it for sport! I live in Australia and the fox is an introduced pest animal killing native wildlife and my lambs!

Answer 1

After dark is usually the best !

Answer 2

About 8 or 9 at night mate is the best time i found and use a fox whistle works a treat i use my 22 magnum works good. If ya want hunt them during the day find a nice spot againsta tree or some sort of rocky out crop in a gully or along where bush meets paddock and whistle them in, Sitting against a tree or rock bbrakesup your body out line so they can't see you a easy.I have heard of a cd you can get that plays ppredator calls for a fox and a bloke told me he used it and was getting foxes up to the back of his ute and just blastin em wit his shotie.

Answer 3

about an hour after the fox has gone to bed :P

shooting animals for sport is only fun when the animals have loaded shotties too!!

Answer 4

Fox are most active in the hours before daylight and just after dark, no matter what country the dwell in. Good hunting!

Brigie W and Jungle Ruler; you have no clue to the damage a non-native animal can do to the local species! They can literally wipe out the native animals. You like animals? Well hello Einstein, if you don’t remove these animals they will kill off THOUSANDS of local animals. Can you understand that?!?  Its better to be thought of as a fool than to open your mouth and confirm it!
