Red foxes can be found around the world in such habitats as forests, grasslands, mountains, and deserts. They may also dwell on farms, suburban areas, and even large communities.  I have a fox in my neighbourhood.

Due to its resourcefulness, The red fox has gained a legendary reputation for intelligence and cunning.

The sly red fox!

Their coat is brown or gray at birth, and changes during the first month. The coat might not be red at all!  Red foxes may be gold, silver, brown, black or a combination of those colours.  Their thick tail provides balance and protection against cold weather.  It is also used as a signal to communicate with other foxes.

Sadly, Red foxes are still hunted for sport. Hunting season begins soon. Red foxes, are considered nuisance pests by some people and may be destroyed due to concerns about rabies.

There are global petitions to BAN FOX HUNTING online.  Please sign.
