"When i drive the back roads i'm going 50 mph or faster"
Well, I drive around 10-15 mph, sometimes slower. I reckon the difference is like between the young bull & the old bull. LOL!. I drive slow, because I don't plan to look the same area over twice.
This is a pic of a bedded Red Fox, around 3/8 mile out. Pic is facing NorWest. Wind from the NorWest. Had I been driving 50 or faster, I doubt I would've seen it with the naked eye 
.
When I was driving down this gravel, I was going pretty slow. I paused for a quick scan of the distant hills. There lay a Red. Red was facing to the SouWest. Never raised his head. Until I stopped for a longer view.
I was at his down-wind.

Here is a yearling Red, balled-up a tad over 100yrds from the gravel. Pic is facing to the SouWest. Wind is from the SouWest. Note..the Red's face & chest is facing a down-winderly direction. Dumb pup never raised his head as I stopped my truck for a view.
A blind hippo walking on peanut brittle could've walked right up on this one. I don't waste my time on any pups or adult Red's. Not much challenge.

Pup finally raised his head my way. After I slammed my truck door & yelled towards him.
