Fox-Prey Relationships in Eastern South Dakota
<p>Relationships between red foxes (Vulpes fulva) end their principal prey, particularly ring-necked pheasants (Phasianus colchicus), were studied on four units in eastern South Dakota from December 1964 to September 1966. Each unit was composed of a 100-square-mile "reduction area," on which fox …

Causes and Implications of Fox Population Dynamics in Central Southern England
The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) is a generalist mesopredator and the world’s most widespread terrestrial carnivore. As a major predator of game, livestock, and wildlife, foxes are culled throughout their range to limit their impact, including in the UK, where data suggests they occur at higher overall …

Red fox genome assembly identifies genomic regions associated with tame and aggressive behaviors
Strains of red fox (Vulpes vulpes) with markedly different behavioral phenotypes have been developed in the famous long-term selective breeding program known as the Russian farm-fox experiment. Here we sequenced and assembled the red fox genome and re-sequenced a subset of foxes from the tame, …
