Equipment

A whistle per runner

Game Description

A variation on foxes and hounds where a few set off and hide then the rest find them. The foxes must blow a whistle every 50 paces / 30 seconds. All it means is that the foxes can't simply sit in a bush. No torches allowed.


Variations:

-Several separate groups of foxes & hounds where each group of hounds may only catch its own fox.
-Fox whistles whenever hounds shout him to. Can they catch him within 10, 20, etc shouts? - depends on terrain.
