Can a fox kill people

Answer 1

It is unlikely that a fox would kill a dog UNLESS it was of a small variety and also a non aggressive type. Foxes are naturally shy animals and would normally eat rabbits, voles and earth worms. They are a major pest to hens and will kill more than they carry off and this is to do with the history of foxes who in the wild and in cold climates will kill everything they can and then store what they could. One thing to watch with foxes is that should you have a family pet die, bury it deep as foxes will dig up the animal and cart it off. I have lived in the countryside for 60 years and I have never heard of a fox killing a dog. My own dog is a fell terrier ( border/lakeland cross ) and he is more than a match for any fox. Foxes, unless they are an old dog fox are quite small and slender and cats and dogs can inflict injuries on the fox and that is why the incidences of fox attacks are small and often steeped in folklore.

Answer 2

yes and no it depends on the size of the fox and the size of the dog

Answer 3

No, the only way a fox could kill a human would be if it was infected with the rabies virus and bit a human and the human did not seek medical care.
