How do foxes spend the winter?
Before autumn, I will eat as much as possible, hunt hard and accumulate a layer of fat on my body. Then I will shed my skin and my hair will become longer and thicker. Then it will be winter. I will dig rodents to eat, and I will also eat insects, wild fruits, fish, frogs or small mammals.
Foxes live in forests, grasslands, semi-deserts and hilly areas, live in tree holes or soil holes, go out for food at night and go home at dawn. So it can prey on all kinds of mice, rabbits, birds, fish, frogs, lizards, insects and so on. I also ate some wild fruits.
Foxes store food in spring and put it in the ice and snow about 2 meters deep from the ground to prevent other carnivores from stealing food. Generally, it doesn't come out in winter. Even if it comes out for food, it can be said that the fox is half hibernating.

Growth and reproduction
Give birth to babies in February-May every year, usually 3 -6 per fetus. The fox is very vigilant. If someone finds the fox in its nest, it will "move" that night in case something happens.
The mother fox usually estrus and mate from February to May every year. The gestation period is about 5 1 ~ 52 days, and each fetus may give birth to 6 ~ 8 babies. When I was born, my whole body was black and gray, and only the tip of my nose was pink. They can't see anything when they are born, and they have to rely on their mother's protection and feeding.
1 month later, he can stand slowly, his eyes become bigger and he grows light brown hair. Two months later, the fox's appearance was basically presented, and it was still difficult to stand and run, and its coat color was completely improved. As an adult, he grew a beard, raised his ears and slender legs, and was able to run and hunt.
