Re: Buzzards and Banthams

As a follow up to the last post,

Brighton is teeming with urban foxes & Badgers. One summer's night I watched a Badger walking down the pavement carrying a take-away carton, it looked like a KFC meal, some 10ft. behind, folowing the Badger was a young Fox and behind him was an old dog Fox. Every now & then the Badger would put down the carton and turned growling at the foxes. The youngster would sit back on his haunches & look up to the sky as much to say "What me mate, I'm just star gazing." The dog Fox just stood still. This went on until they were on the hill away from the lights, when a fight broke out. I don't know who won but next morning as I was out with the dog, we found the box or I should say the dog found it, all that was left were a few chips and a couple of bones.

These last 2 post should be in the mammals forum I think.
