No. However, we do provide information foxes and practical guidance on deterring foxes. Foxes very rarely spread any diseases and live largely in harmony with man. They also help to control pests by preying on rats, mice and pigeons. Fox control is unsuccessful because foxes compensate for increases of mortality by increasing the number of vixens that breed. In the UK it is illegal to poison, gas, asphyxiate, maim, stab, impale, drown or club foxes.

A group of foxes is a rare and lovely sight, beautiful to behold. But if you need something shorter for everyday conversation, a group of foxes is called a skulk. See similar questions...

If __________ is anything except 'fox' then the answer is No. Vulpines (foxes) look like dogs, wolves and coyotes, but they are distinctly different and share little or no common ancestry. Dogs, wolves and coyotes can (and do) interbreed. From a veterinary standpoint, foxes are more similar to housecats than to dogs. There are a number of dog breeds that look rather foxy.

We don't have exact specs on this, but tests indicate that foxes see about the same range of colors as dogs, meaning they have dichromatic color vision. Dogs lack the ability to see green, specifically, and apparently can't tell green from red or yellow. (This condition is found in humans, as well, and is the most common sort of "color blindness.

Definitely! It's not at the top of their Things To Do list, but foxes have no problems swimming a reasonable distance if the need is there. Yes and no. Red Fox fossils have been found in North America which date back thousands of years, long before Columbus (or the Vikings, either, if you're one of those people). However, these foxes tended to stay in the fields and forests of the Northwest and Midwest, and so were not common to the east coast where Europeans first settled. See similar questions...

Just about anything! Foxes are omnivores, and while they seem to prefer meat, they also go for nuts, berries, fruit of all sorts, vegetables, and even grains! Red Foxes who have decided to live near humans (for whatever reason) will eat pretty much anything a human will. See similar questions...

Not deliberately, at least. I suppose I can't help but be influenced by my own experiences and observations growing up, but I do try to create the FoxTrot storylines from scratch, rather than base them on what might have happened in my family. I am the oldest of four children (three boys, one girl) and it's true that there was a lot of FoxTrot-like chaos, but I think in general my characters are more extensions of me than my siblings or parents.

The mohel is primarily interested in three medical conditions that may push off the bris date: fever, jaundice, and eye infection. No bris may take place if the fever has reached a temperature of 99.5 degrees Fahrenheit (~37.5 degrees Celsius). Levels of jaundice can fluctuate from day to day. If the jaundice is 14 or above, then the bris must be postponed. If the level has stabilized or is going down at 12, then the bris may take place. See similar questions...

The main disease problem in foxes is Mange, this cannot be transmitted to humans or cats. In theory fox mange could be caught by dog, but in practice it doesn't. The UK has been completely rabies free for many years and there are well prepared contingency plans for deal with any possible outbreak. See similar questions...

Not if rubbish is kept in a secure lidded dustbin. With the lid closed, Brent's wheelie bins are completely fox-proof. Do not leave out additional waste in plastic bags. Keep this inside until the morning of you rubbish collection day. See similar questions...

No. Due to man's carelessness there is plenty of food available to foxes - even in the winter they do not go short of food. Leaving food out does however, help pests like rodents and these are far more of a problem for human beings. See similar questions...

Foxes use faeces to mark their territory. This may be prevented by following our advice on deterring foxes. See similar questions...

Foxes dig small holes to get at earthworms which they like to eat. Removing earthworms eliminates the problem. Products to control earthworms can be bought at garden centres. Foxes are naturally found in both urban and rural areas. However, because foxes are territorial, they rarely survive in new 'strange' areas. This also causes problems for foxes already present in that area. See similar questions...

No. SprayShield has shown to be extremely effective in deterring low to medium level aggression. In many cases dogs that are strongly motivated to attack cannot be stopped without restraint. The best protection is to be aware of the presence of and avoid an encounter with a potentially dangerous dog. See similar questions...

Absolutely not. Apart from their extremely high conservation value, wetlands provide vital ecosystem services like flood control, water purification and nutrient recycling, and the livelihoods of many communities depend on them. Draining wetlands is not only environmentally disastrous, but also likely to be counterproductive — for the same reasons that culling would be more likely to spread the Avian Influenza virus than control it.

The life of a thief is a difficult one at best. If he is caught, the penalties can be quite severe. Jail time has no set limit, so player run governments are free to assess the penalty for thievery any way they want. The same goes for banishment time. In addition to the potentially severe punishments one can receive if caught, the thief automatically consents to combat with anyone that notices the crime, NPC or PC alike. See similar questions...

Historically, most legal deterrants to drunk driving have not worked. Years of experience with license suspensions, mandatory jail terms, mandated alcohol treatment has shown that such deterrants do not work effectively. Studies reveal that up to 75% of those with suspended licenses drive anyway. Several states have initiated court mandated ignition interlock programs. See similar questions...
