It's great you protected your chickens from the fox, but maybe next time use something more suitable than a .22 pistol. Killing the fox is a hell of alot better than mortally wounding it only do drag itself into the woods to die slow from a disfiguring wound.

I agree in general however in particular I figured by the time I went back inside and find a suitable fox killing firearm the damsel in distress would have been dead. They would have weighed more heavily on my conscience than the wounded fox escaping.
I normally keep some kind of firearm handy, just not a long gun. I wasn't waiting on the fox it was just coincidence he was there.
