A local guy, now deceased, was good at trapping fox. He would set a wooden fence post in the edge of the woods and fasten a live chicken to the top of the post with fence staples. He'd also set several leg traps around the post. Fox would jump for the chicken and come down into a leg trap, then thrash around and get into a couple more. He checked his traps often - said he didn't want the fox to suffer long.
