Frequently have noticed where foxes have killed grouse and 

 rabbits in the snow; have noticed many cases in my twenty 

 years of shooting experiences. 



WILLIAM A. COCKILL, Lewellyn: 



Hawks, minks, weasels and foxes have to live 365 days in the 

 year on what they can catch; the damage they do is evident. 

 Have seen hawks catch chickens and pigeons, song and game 

 birds; also many evidences where foxes, minks and weasels 

 caught rabbits in the snow.
