Predators of the fox include the wolf and man. Foxes will double back on their own tracks in order to confuse their enemies. A male fox is called a reynard, the female is called a vixen, and the baby is called a kit. A group of foxes is called a skulk or a leash. The long, bushy tail, sometimes called a sweep, helps the fox change direction quickly and keeps the fox's feet and nose warm when it curls up to sleep.
Foxes have sharp, curved claws, sharp teeth, and thick, insulating fur.
Most foxes hunt alone. Without our visitors' support, Enchanted Learning would soon be off-line.
