Do foxes bury (cache) baits for later?
A. A study at Boorowa, NSW found that like dogs, foxes will often take several baits and bury the excess for later. Approximately one third of the baits were cached. Most of the cached baits were retrieved by foxes within three days. However, the study showed that the recommended intensity of baiting would kill most susceptible foxes in the area even if they cached several baits.
