So, besides being wonderfully beautiful, one of the most adaptable animals in the world, and highly intelligent...their usefulness...

The fox is part of the ecosystem's predator-prey check & balance, hunting and eating rodents, birds, underground things such as worms, beetles, and Spiders...this, as with any animal which eats other animals, is natural pest-population control. It's a rather self explanatory thing: if there were no predators, the rodents and deer and other prey-type animals would just breed out of control, causing them to eat up their food sources (plants...and PLEASE don't tell me plants are useless too), it also causes diseases to start and spread more easily.

It's an extremely useful thing if you ask me. I'd rather see foxes in the woods than my house filled with rats.
