Foxes have a cunning nature, a strong memory, a well-developed sense of hearing and smell, and agile and durable action. foxes are typically solitary animals and they prefer to roam at night because they are nocturnal. They have a unique adaptation where they can rotate their ears up to 180 degrees to better detect their prey's location. Foxes have adapted to survive in many different climates, including deserts, forests, mountains, and grasslands. They also enjoy eating a variety of food, mostly small rodents, eggs, insects, and fruits.


Unlike other canids that chase to get food, they can think of ways to catch their prey by trickery.


It often first in the lush vegetation, wild rats, hares, frequent activities in the area, according to the smell, barking and tracks to find their traces, and then alert, unobtrusive approach to the prey, even the body completely lying on the ground and creeping, so as not to scare the prey and escape.


Then crouch down, a sudden attack to capture the prey.


Sometimes they pretend to be in pain or chase their tails to lure the attention of small animals such as burrowing mice, and then suddenly come forward to capture them when they are close.


The fox is suspicious by nature and will usually make careful observations of its surroundings before taking action.


When it encounters an enemy, it will use its anal glands to secrete the "fox odor" that can almost suffocate other animals, and the stench makes the pursuer have to stop.


In a critical situation, it can also escape by scurrying into the flock, jumping into the river to hide, and other methods.


A fox caught by hunters will play dead, stop breathing temporarily and let people do their bidding, and then suddenly and quickly escape when they are not prepared.


These cunning behaviors are all part of its superior survival methods.


The fox usually lives alone and reproduces in small groups.


It is so alert that if its cubs are found, it will move that night.


The fox is often glowing in the dark because of the special reflective crystal dots at the base of its eyes.


At night in the mountain forest, if several foxes are wandering back and forth in the night, it looks like there are many small flickering lights from afar. It often makes people fearful.


Foxes live in forests, grasslands, semi-deserts, and hilly areas, living in tree holes or earthen caves, going out to feed in the evening, and returning home only at dawn.


Their flexible ears can accurately locate sounds, their sense of smell is sensitive, and their long legs can run fast, up to 50km per hour.


So they can hunt all kinds of mice, rabbits, birds, fish, frogs, lizards, insects, and worms, and also eat some wild fruits.


When they pounce on their prey, their long tail helps them keep their balance, and the white hair at the tip of the tail can confuse the enemy and disrupt their vision.


Because it mainly eats rats, and only occasionally attacks poultry, it is an animal with more benefits and fewer harms.
