Grey Fox #8130489 04/29/24 01:36 PM 04/29/24 01:36 PM

Brian1003 OP trapper B Joined: Feb 2024 Posts: 14 Illinois	Does anyone know the best place to have your best chance of success at trapping grey fox? I live in Illinois and we do not have a large number of red fox yet alone a large population of grey fox. I was hoping to find a trapping guide service or trapping adventure going after grey’s. However when searching the only trapping adventures are mainly in Canada. I thought I would post something here in hopes that someone may be able to point me in the right direction or be able to hook me up with someone that can help me on my quest at wanting to trap grey fox. Any help would greatly be appreciated!

"And God said, Let us make man in our image ï¿½and let them have dominion ï¿½and all the creatures that move along the ground". Genesis 1:26

Most in this country have things people in other countries only dream about. Yet, they want America to be more like those other countries.
