No, a fox could not kill a human unless that fox was rabid and the person did not seek medical care.

Foxes are not domesticated but can be tamed to the point that they are quite affectionate with their caretakers. However, they must be obtained quite young. They cannot be housebroken, however, and do not make good house pets.

Yes foxes can be domesticated, though not nearly so easy as most members of the canine family.

no, because the fox will forget they're friends and kill the cat.

The fox is a relative of dogs, so they would naturally lash out at any strange humans that came near them, especially when injured, or their offspring.

No. It is genetically impossible for this to happen because the two species are not closely related.

Can a fox kill people?

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.
