Howard County Foxes Outwit Mother Pig in Bold Farm Chase
On a farm near Athelton Howard County observer Mr. C Ham mond Carr watched a fox repeatedly raid a sow’s straw rick and attempt to reach her piglets. The fox eluded the sow until Carr and Judge Pulaski Dorsey described a simple trap: have two people approach the den and one leave, which draws the fox back. The judge claims foxes cannot count beyond one and the tactic succeeds.
