Mange female vixens fox get it more than male fox

[uncle buck]

Learned this from JJ... the female takes care of the pups... The male will not go down into the den when they are feeding the pup. He puts the food outside and the female retrieves it..  So the female gets the mange she gives it to every pup... I have noticed many woodchucks with the mange.. They must go down those old den and the mites are ready for them too.... If you should remember this kind of keep a record of the fox you get with mange are they Vixens?  PS but of course remember all of the pups by Sep will have had the mange. Both males and females if the mother had mange..  The cycle begins again and again..

again thanks to the dumb@$$ gov't for introducing the mange to control the groundhog population...
