Hello All.
I'm lucky enough to watch a foxes den from my living room window - its 2/3rds of a mile away so I need my scope! As the weather's nice at present, the cubs are all out playing in the daytime. However, although I've only ever seen one adult at any one time, there are definately at least seven cubs, four look bigger and are red, and three are smaller and darker. Could this be two seperate litters sharing one den, or is it one large litter?
I watched the same den last year and there were only three cubs then.
Whatever the answer is, its still good to watch them.
