Foxes are known for their adaptability and intelligence. They are primarily nocturnal, meaning they are most active at night. Foxes communicate through a variety of vocalizations, including barks, screams, and howls, which help them establish territory and attract mates. They are also skilled hunters, often preying on small mammals, birds, and insects. In social structures, foxes can be solitary or live in small family groups. They are territorial animals, marking their territory with scent markings. During the breeding season, a male and female may form a monogamous pair bond, raising their young together in a den.
