Vulpes vulpes

Over the last few years, we have been seeing more and more red foxes in the city. Often, they live in the greener areas of the suburbs, where there are plenty of places to find shelter.They dig their dens in wastelands, parks, gardens, woodland copses, and beside railway tracks.
Foxes are omnivores and opportunists: they find plenty of food in gardens (small rodents, earthworms, beetles, fruits, and berries), pet food bowls, and, of course, bins!
