The hallmark of a fox with an incredible scent
Given the decline of forests, is increasingly common to see foxes at night within the city limits in some countries like England. He is cunning, agile, restless and light. It has an incredible smell. The fox is a mammal of about 70 cm in length (not counting the tail, which is 30 to 35 cm). It has the broad head, a pointed snout and thin, ears spacious, large triangular allowing it to identify suspicious sounds from far away. It has long hair that changes color depending on the species and according to the seasons.
Its tail is very peculiar because it has a gland that secretes a liquid strong, unpleasant odor which, unfortunately for Fox, makes it easy to sniff for his terrible enemy, the dog.
He lives in a hole that it digs in the ground or in a burrow abandoned by another animal, which changes as needed. Mainly feeds on rats and mice and even insects. His famous chicken coops invasions occur mainly in spring is the time in which to feed her cubs. They grow in number from 3 to 7 with closed eyes that do not open until 9 days. The mother breastfeeds for 6 months.
