Unlike most members of the dog family, we foxes will eat almost anything. We are generally very alert and wary of threats, particularly humans, with whom we are able to live close to so we can take advantage of their sloppy life styles that provide us with food and shelter. Our eyes are adapted for seeing in the dark, with pupils that change to an elliptical shape in strong light like those of a cat, rather than round like those of other members of the dog family. We have keen senses of sight, smell, and hearing. Our trickery in catching prey and escaping capture has created our reputation for slyness and cunning.
If the animal is considerably smaller than a raccoon, it becomes a prey item. If the animal is larger than a raccoon and a carnivore, it becomes a predator the raccoon will try to avoid. If it is a similar size, they will tend to ignore each other warily.
Foxes are scavengers and opportunity predators. Small animals such as rabbits, chickens, etc will fall victim to the fox.
Normally they will ignore eachother, but sometimes fights can start.
They be shy or attack only if they have rabies but some are sold as pets man that are tame
With the exception of small prey items, raccoons usually try to avoid confrontations with other animals.
When hungry the babies will make a crying sound. When happy or satisfied they make a characteristic churring sound.
