Baby Red Foxes


Baby Red Foxes
Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes)
Unlike most wild animals in the United States, the red fox has actually increased in numbers since the first European settlers arrived.  Despite their name, these foxes are not always red, but can be red-gray, silver-gray, brown or black.  But in all cases, the tail tip is white.  They mate for life and have a life span of 4-5 years.
