[He does, indeed, shove, and hiss when he's bitten again. Monty slams the door of the cage into place and finally rises to take stock of his injuries.]
You're really not a very nice fox. All that thrashing about. Now, I am in love with a fox, so I'll be kind, little friend. I'll put you back out in the forest with your friends. Perhaps you've a wife to tend to. 'Tis the season.
[It's a long and arduous trek to the forest from the far side of the village. Monty mostly struggles with the cage because the fox keeps banging around in it.]
You're going to hurt yourself, you know? That won't be good for anyone, will it?
[Someone might catch them while Monty's setting the cage down to change hands, perhaps.]
[Alfie bangs into the cage extra hard at that. Part of it's an instinctual reaction to being confined, but in a case like this, he's also willing to cut off his nose to spite his face - he'll take some bangs and bruises if it makes things difficult for Monty.]
[With much ado about nothing, as far as Monty is concerned, they make it out to the woods. The gentleman hunts around for a little while until he finds what appears to be a fox hole at the base of a tree. Alfie will smell that there is another todd fox around here. Monty is less discerning. It's a hole to send the wretch down.
He positions the cage over the hole and then makes a few adjustments to it. Specifically, Monty believes an exit into the bottom of the cage. He'll leave that there for Alfie to crawl out of and directly into the darkness.]
Enjoy your new home. I'll collect my cage later.
[So saying, Monty's going to make himself scarce quickly to try to avoid Alfie slinking into the hole and finding a way to come after him again.]
