In Foxes, Foxhounds & Foxhunting, written in 1923, Richard Clapham notes that:
With regard to the weights of foxes, these differ considerably in various parts of the country. Roughly speaking the average dog fox weighs about 15 lb, and the vixen 13½ lb. It is quite safe to say that nowadays there are far more foxes under than over 16 lb.
