RSPB Spotlight - Foxes

There seems to be no sitting on the fence where this animal is concerned. It is either regarded as a wonderful wild creature or a killer to persecute. This book explores all aspects of the versatility of foxes’ lives across the world, and also how it has been part of myth and folklore for centuries.

From the introduction to the Red Fox, to the intense chapters on the human interaction with this wild canid, the informative text is accompanied by superb photographs. Pictures of fox family life - as parents and providers - contrast with others of cruel trapping and fox fur farms, all of which help illustrate the spectrum of our relationship with the fox.
