The scientific name for swift fox is Vulpes velox.

They usually eat other plankton, by rapidly ingesting other plankton who are smaller than themselves. Herbivorous plankton ingest (with their mouth) individual alga particles and other types of algae-like small plantasiac creatures.

they can at least have 5

No, swift foxes do not migrate, hibernate or estivate.

By the mid-1900s, the swift fox appeared to have disappeared from Montana altogether. In 1969, the state declared the species extirpated, noting that the last documented record was a specimen captured along the eastern border of Glacier National Park in 1918. Canada declared the swift fox extirpated in 1978. In 1992 the species was petitioned for listing in the United States under the federal Endan-gered Species Act, then was listed as a candidate species by the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) four years later. It appeared that the swift fox was about to become the endangered species poster child of the Great Plains. Then, inexplicably, the foxes began reappearing in Montana. "We started hearing more and more reports from people saying they'd seen swift foxes," says Giddings. Most of the sightings were in the state's north-central region around the Hi-Line between Havre and Glasgow. The foxes were products of an aggressive reintroduction begun in Saskatchewan and Alberta several years earlier. In 1983, the provinces had begun releasing wild-captured swift foxes from Colorado and Wyoming and captive-bred foxes from Canada. Over the next 14 years, Canadian wildlife biologists reintroduced 900 foxes into suitable habitat, with the hope that a healthy breeding population would develop. Though most of the released foxes died (reintroduced foxes are highly susceptible to predation), enough survived to establish a growing resident breeding population. Once they learned of the Canadian program, Montana biologist assumed the in-creased sightings were of swift foxes crossing the international border. But with federal listing looming, the state's Department of Fish, Wildlife & Parks knew it needed proof the rare fox had established a resident population in Montana.

The actual population of the Northern Swift Fox is unknown, however, for sometime since the early 1900s it has been extinct. Around the 1970s, Canda and the US started breeding and reintroducing the fox to its habitat. By the year of 2000, almost 800 foxes had been released and the fox was taken of the US endangered species list, but Canada still considers it endangered and continue to realease captive-bred foxes into the wild.

Habitat loss, human activities and Habitat destruction

People hunt swift foxes for the same reason they hunt everything else : it's "fun", the animals are "pests", and they get a free trophy (the fur, tail or head).

They live in the North America places such as New Mexico, Colorado, and Texas.

its so ready it gets its own food by its self

The swift fox has 2 coats of fur. In the winter, the swift fox grows whiter fur to camouflage in the snow covered ground so that they aren't too visible for its predators. During the warmer days when there isn't any snow, they shed their white fur, and grow browner fur which can blend in with crops around them.

No, the swift fox is not endangered. It is classified as "Of Least Concern" as it is quite common throughout its range. Click on this link for more information.

Other than humans, the number one predator of the swift fox is the golden eagle. It can also fall prey to other predatory birds, coyotes, and wolves.

A biotic factor of a swift fox is a decrease in their population. This is due to the small animals that it eats, and a slowly diminishing population of them in some areas. Abiotic factors include the environment that the swift fox lives in and the factors that keep its environment safe and flourishing. This includes water, weather, rain and more.

Since the Swift Fox is the smallest fox in all of North America is most likely for the predator to win in a battle. But, to defend themselves, they usually use their claws and teeth that are a little bigger than a house cat.
