Fox

A mammal with reddish-brown fur. An adult has a typical size of about 65cm in length; being 35cm to shoulder height. The three main problems with foxes are:
1. During the mating season there will often be 'screaming' heard at night as foxes' mate; this can be a considerable nuisance in urban areas.
2. They will dig for earthworms and leatherjackets, and other invertebrates, which can form part of their varied diet. The fox scrapes can result in considerable holes being dug in a turf surface.
