Foxes are nocturnal animals, or hunt at night. They usually find a mate during the winter and have kits, baby foxes during the spring. The kits usually come in packages of 4-5 at a time during this season.

During the winter, foxes remain active. They do not hibernate but they hunt and live in dens during the winter. They grow thicker winter coats to help keep them warm.
Foxes don't hibernate, therefore they carry on life as usual. Winter is also the mating season for foxes in the northern hemisphere.

Foxes can hunt, play, eat, sleep and do most things other animals do.
Lot's of things, they're dogs, so they make canine noises, along with chirps and yips also, they act like cats the way they pounce, they're nocturnal yet occasionally come out in the day, they can hear a watch ticking 40 yards away, they are coooooool.

Most foxes live 2 to 3 years but can survive for up to 10 years, or even longer, in captivity. Foxes are generally smaller than other members of the family Canidae such as wolves, jackals, and domestic dogs. Fox-like features typically include an acute muzzle (a "fox face") and bushy tail. Other physical characteristics vary according to their habitat. For example, the Fennec Fox (and other species of foxes adapted to life in the desert, such as the kit fox) has large ears and short fur, whereas the Arctic fox has small ears and thick, insulating fur. Another example is the Red Fox which has a typical auburn pelt ending normally with white marking.

Unlike many canids, foxes are usually not pack animals. Typically, they are solitary, opportunistic feeders that hunt live prey (especially rodents). Using a pouncing technique practiced from an early age, they are usually able to kill their prey quickly. Foxes also gather a wide variety of other foods ranging from grasshoppers to fruit and berries.

Foxes are normally extremely wary of humans and are not kept as pets (with the exception of the Fennec); however, the Silver Fox was successfully domesticated in Russia after a 45 year selective breeding program. This selective breeding also resulted in physical traits appearing that are frequently seen in domestic cats, dogs, and other animals: pigmentation changes, floppy ears, and curly tails.

Unlike other animals, they don't go into hibernation and continue hunting. They're hungry all year long.

Foxes usually play around, hunt and interact with other foxes. They are curious creatures and will venture in urban places, very close to human homes.
