Ecology and behaviour: Overview Foxes belong to the dog family,
which includes wolves, coyotes, grey foxes, raccoon dogs and
their relatives. All members of this family are incredibly
adaptable animals, and this makes them successful colonisers in
many areas of the world practically in all habitats available
and often in close proximity to humans. In these pages you can
find a wealth of information on fox biology, ecology and
behaviour from physical appearance to the way foxes communicate
