Rambo the fox lived a utopian life inside a fenced refuge for endangered species, where humans simply couldn't catch him.

He hasn't been seen since October and likely died during flooding.For four long years, a lone fox named Rambo led countless pursuers on a merry chase, outwitting them at every step.

"He lives in your head," said the veteran tracker who spent more that 100 days on Rambo's trail, covering hundreds of kilometres on foot. There's no doubt Rambo was an intelligent beast, says Stevens, but he reckons the fox had a pretty utopian life inside the refuge.The government has released a 50-page plan to halt Australia's nature crisis. Here's what's in it

"He'd come up onto a trap, within a few metres of it and then he'd disappear and he just wouldn't come back to that area for four, five, six weeks. Until he thought it was safe." With no camera sightings or other signs of Rambo's enduring presence, a preliminary declaration was made on December the 2nd that he was gone.Between then and now, intensive monitoring has found no further sign of him, including on any of the 97 cameras that operate day and night.

"Now Rambo is gone, we've been able to open up the breeding area fence and they now have access to the full 5,800 hectare site," Mr Sparrow said.
