No, foxes are generally not endangered. In fact, people need to hunt foxes in Australia now. It ruined the ecosystem because the foxes there are not native. They eat birds instead of getting rid of the rabbit population. Some species of fox no longer exist in the wild. But otherwise foxes are safe from being endangered. In some countries they are a pest.

There are 4 foxes that are indeed endangered: the Grey fox, the Darwin's, the Island fox and the Swift fox.
