Gee I don't remember seeing you there that night. It was one animal that got shot 3 times with a 20 ga. and kept on trotting around. It was a rabid fox btw. One blast from a 12 ga. stopped it dead in it's tracks. One of the shots from the 20 ga. was from point blank range (about 2 feet). The fox was right in front of my sliding glass door so I slid the door open just enough to stick the barrel out and blasted the varmit right in the rear quarters. It didn't even flinch. Another shot was from about 10 feet straight down from my balcony and the other was from about 25 yards.
So between your second and third shot, the fox ran 25 yards. Then after 3 shots of 20 gauge, it is still "trotting around," just fine. But somehow you were able to have enough time to make the decision to put down a loaded shotgun, go back inside, get and load your 12 gauge, then go back out and finally "stop it dead in it's tracks?" Are you sure it wasn't already dead on it's feet when you gave it a coup de grace? Yeah, yeah. You were there, so you know. I just wish you could tell it better.
