Descripción de FRIENDLY URBAN FOX:
My new friend Urban foxes, for 60 years they have lived alongside us humans. They have become the equivalent of wild dogs in our cities. Post mortem inspection has revealed that most of their diet consists of earthworms, which must be what they eat in the wild as a last resort to stay alive. Thats why you find those annoying holes in your garden. To say that feeding them is removing their hunting instincts in my opinion is wrong, as they no longer have them, there is nothing for them to hunt in Cities. They have quickly evolved into scavengers. The average life span of a pet fox is ten to twelve years, a wild one 4 and and an urban one 6. in spite of so many being killed on the road, so living alongside humans seems to benefit the fox. In London they tried to eradicate them, but as soon as they killed them, fresh ones moved in so they gave up. Lilly is one of a few foxes that visit my garden, and is the cheekiest by far, the original first contact was made by her. I used to leave food for them but one day I was late, so she sat and waited for me. I took the food out, and sat outside watching her eat. When she had finished, she came up to me and sat at my feet and asked for more.I was amazed that she gingerly took it from my hand.
