Howdy Folks,
A word about the fox issue. I am a Nuisance Wildlife Trapper and deal with Grey Fox all the time. It's totally normal for fox to be active during the day & night, they hunt for birds during the day and if someone has a birdfeeder nearby the fox will hang around to ambush birds.
I have 5 Sulcatas of various sizes which live free in my fenced back yard, the foxes that live here seem to look right past the tortoises, so I wouldn't worry. Birds seem to be what they are looking for.
If you are really dead set on getting rid of them.. for whatever reason.. you should call a private nuisance wildlife trapper, call around and find someone who can capture the fox.. it's mate and the kits ( it's that time of year) where ever they are.. (the male and female raise the young together) and then relocate them as a family.
Fox, raccoon, opossum, rats, and many other animals live WHERE PEOPLE LIVE because we provide them food water and shelter without realizing it. That fox is just another one of your neighbors.
Good Luck,
--jeff
