Red foxes are interesting animals. Red foxes have black ears and feet with a white tail. They have 5-6 babies but only 2-3 live. They live 12 or less years. They eat small mammals, birds, and fruit. Also they can run up to 48 km per hour. Foxes need a large territory to hunt in. One reason they live in the marsh is the amount of protected land for them to roam in.
