well humans are foxes main predators. other than that they're quite near the top of the food chain. Foxes will hunt and kill rabbits, chickens, any birds small enough and that it can catch and, well, pretty much whatever it can catch. Occasionally a fox might kill a cat but it is extremely rare.

predators: The fox has a primary predator in man, who hunts and traps it, as well as drives it off or strips it of habitat. In the wild, bobcats, lynxes, panthers, and wolves will take down a fox if they are able, and the bear or wolverine will kill a fox if it can, though the fox is generally too quick and wiley. The young of the fox are vulnerable to larger Birds of Prey where the adults are not such easy marks and are generally avoided.

In general, any larger predator will tackle any fox that is found within its range (pumas, wolverines,eagles, etc.). That's the general rule of thumb - the larger predator will prey on a smaller predator if the opportunity presents itself. Bears, larger canines, or any large cat can be trouble for a fox, as can any large bird of prey.

prey: A foxe's prey includes voles, mice, rats, insects and fruit. Sometimes they will hunt down chickens and other small farm animals for food. They love rabbits though they're difficult to catch, but they also do eat eggs and birds, they are mostly scavengers.

*In times of food shortages foxes eat berries making them omnivores.
