    2 days ago I found a whole rat buried in the same corner.

    My question was do foxes kill and bury rats ?

    The answer is yes, they do kill and bury rats (and indeed any type of food.)
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Thanks Bob.

    The RB it was in is a seed bed and the soil is like coffee granules as I have sieved it to a fine tilth.

    The fox must have dug a 6 inch deep hole buried it and then levelled the soil as it looked undisturbed and the same as the rest of the bed.

    And we think we are clever.
