How To Hunt Foxes And Yotes??
Anyone can give me good advice?? I find it hard to spot these buggers ..... I always hear their calls, and I try to lure them in ... but never see them ...

Get the jackrabbit call. If you can lie down on something that raises you up above the grass a bit (rock/log), you can call them in quite easily (coyotes). They take a bit longer than the other animals out there, and they usually don't come straight in, but you can hear them if you position yourself in a place surrounded by good "crunchy" brush.

Fox - well... I only hunt that map in multi-player with my best friend, and have only been in there 3 times. Fox seem to really live up to their "sly" name. They never really came in like the coyotes do.

You can hunt them from up high as well, but they don't seem to come in close that way.

easiest way i've found is to get the call and find feeding zones, you'll see dead rabbits everywhere. get down wind of the sight find high ground and call em in.

Call them, look for the wind and lay down flat, because fox will see you crouched

Thing is I never spot them.

I have notice foxes tend to be MUCH more sly than Yotes as I have a MUCH harder time hunting a Fox vs Yote.

But I always see them at a distance, never up close shooting range. I lure them in, but they are not like other animals who call back ... So I never know where they are coming from

Foxes never seem to approach the call in a straight line. I always notice them circling around and coming from a different direction when I use a call. Definitely easier to spot from high up, though.

there is a skill where you can stay hidden in bushes
this helps a lot!

I hunted one fox with a game glitch,kek
the other one I spent like a whole hour chasing
I suggest u dont even try it without the steath skill
by the way I am always really curious about who fed them that many rabbits

Sit and call them in. The higher the animal difficulty the further away they will stop from the player it seems. They also tend to circle the caller, so dont be surprised if they come in from a different direction from the original call.

A good line of sight is handy to watch them come in, or listen for the movement thru foliage.

Pick your spot after Vocal and/or you Calling. Look all around you for tracks and disturbed areas remembering where they are. Call then keep looking for new tracks and disturbed areas. The new ones are where the fox or coyote is at.

I had the opportunity to watch a fox on the open field near the windmills while calling. I mentioned that it takes two too for calls until it turns around. But this does not attract em for very long. It turns back again after 10-30 seconds. So I started to call in a endless loop. but that made it flee. so calling it too often will not be a good idea! by night /dusk / dawn or in the woods they will come very close up to 10m before they run away. but somtimes all patience is wasted with it. so i tend to let them cry and pass by..

So for me i got so far 5 Foxes, till now i ever have done the same, stop right there where you are when they do a call. Lay on the ground (stay there like a tree no movement) and make Wounded Rabbit Calls do a call wait 15 sec do again, listen to the areas around you. And when i heard they are walking near by i go back crouched and spot for the shot worked fine for me till now ^^

wow 5 foxes.. guess that makes you to an expert! No, just kidding. I think thats a good way to approach!
