Foxes can climb fences.
Well most fences foxes can climb.
if you want to keep a fox from climbing a fence you should run an electric fence wire around the fence to keep the fox out.
Foxes are able to jump up to 3 feet, and their claws enable them to climb even beyond 6 feet.
Sometimes they will even climb neighboring objects like trees in order to get over a fence.
When a Fox needs to the Fox will move there dens.
Foxes also keep multiple dens available to move between when needed.
Both the male and female foxes care for the young, guard the den, and bring food.
Most adult foxes will have multiple dens and if disturbed, will move (with their young) to another.
A fox will sometimes eat a dead fox and some foxes have killed other foxes to eat but usually this happens in harsh conditions.
In most cases a fox will leave a dead fox to decompose or for another animal to eat.
Foxes scream at night to attract a mate since most foxes are active mostly at night this is when you'll usually hear the foxes scream.
Foxes scream and bark to communicate with each other.
This becomes more common during mating season, which is at its peak in January.
The most common reason that foxes scream is to attract a mate and during the mating process.
Foxes are nocturnal, so this is when they are most active.
Foxes are actually active all year round but foxes are most active around the months of May through July and are mostly active during dawn and dusk.
Although foxes can come out at anytime of the day.
For much of the year, foxes are difficult to see in the wild.
But when the foxes cubs are born between May and July, they are vocal and more active during the day, hunting, playing or just relaxing in the sun.
A Fox lives between 3 to 4 years in the wild and when in Captivity the Fox can live up to 14 years.
Foxes live a shorter lifespan in the wild than they do in Captivity.
Either the Fox starves or they get injured and die or they get killed by other animals in the wild making the Foxes lifespan shorter.
Areas that have more predators or less foraging foods can dramatically shorten a fox's life span.
Many foxes die of starvation and an average fox typically only makes 1 – 2 kills a week.
In his 2005 compendium, Longevity of Mammals in Captivity, Richard Weigl lists the oldest Red fox on record as being a mountain subspecies (Vulpes vulpes macroura) caught, in Utah, that arrived at Zoo Boise in Idaho during August 1985 at an estimated age of two years and four months; she was still alive in July 2004.
The red fox is the largest of the true foxes and one of the most widely distributed members of the order Carnivora, being present across the entire Northern Hemisphere including most of North America, Europe and Asia, plus parts of North Africa.
It is listed as least concern by the IUCN
