So what you are saying Jack is all there left to mount was the tail?? :)

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

i personally have only seen two in western washington. the most recent i was on my way to the nisq. wildlife area and had one run out in front of me, thought it was a really small yote, till i saw the dark legs, white tip on the tail. the other was in an abandoned farm field it was mousing around. there definetly on the wetside though.

I saw one on the top of white pass while night skiing a few years back. Thats the only one I have seen. I talked to a guy in the wenas last year who had shot and missed one off of sheep co rd. but it sounds like there are pockets of them here and there. good luck.

Cool, didn't know their were Grey Fox here.  Havn't seen any fox yet.  I think the Grey's make the nicest looking mounts.  I've got a Life-Size Grey Fox mounted at my house.  It and the Wild Boar were the only 2 mounts I brought with me when I moved.

Speaking of, saw one yesterday and got to show my wifer her first fox, by Ephrata.  Sure a cut bushy thing.  Mostly tail.  Not the reddest of them, but would have been a nice trophy.

We called in a Grey near the Winchester Wasteway Rest Area on I-90 last season.  Didn't shoot him, as we had a coyote comeing also, didn't get the coyote either.

After the first shot the rest are just noise.

I've seen a few fox in Klickitat county but they are few and far between.

theres two different types of fox in washington. both are a red fox, one is called a cascade red fox and i forget what the other one is called. they look the same, just in different areas. one lives up in the cascades and eastern washington, while the other lives in the lowlands like below the olympics. granted them things could be anywhere in the state, but thats just the general area that there supposed to be in

Maybe that's the one I saw a year or so ago. In the Selah gap by the greenway eating garbage. At first I thought it was a house cat. He's safe as long as he stays near the greenway.
