Sly little fox

Our foxes are right cheeky little beggars. They love to play in the fields, so far they have chewed loads of electric tape when it's turned off, chewed and run off with all the cones I use to mark my dressage arena, stolen an old rug that was covering some batteries, chewed big holes in the trickle net I had in the field (think they are working to order of fatty companion pony!), chewed a leather head collar I left out, stolen the little wooden blocks we use to lift poles, and brought loads of dog toys into the field that they steal from neighbouring gardens. Little monkeys. No sign that the horses are that bothered, given they must have been playing with the haynet whilst the horse was in the paddock there are no signs he ran around.
 
Cant say I mind any kind of wild animals on the yard apart from rats for obvious reasons!
I've encountered everything over the years - fighting badgers in the dark was far worse than foxes!
