The European red fox (vulpes vulpes), is a highly adaptable, opportunistic omnivorous mammal characterised by its big ears, bushy tail and reddish-brown coats. The red fox is an introduced pest specie in Australia, originating in North America, Europe, Asia and North Africa. The red fox was brought to Australia for by British colonies for recreational hunting as early as 1855 and from then the fox rapidly spread across the southern area's of Australia, except for Tasmania, coinciding with the distribution rabbits, as they are the key prey of the red fox. Within 20 years, the red fox had achieved pest status in Australia. This species rapid spread was reliant on the lack of natural predators in Australian, only having only the dingoes and Tasmanian devil to compete for food in certain areas like Tasmania, where the fox populations seem to be supressed. Their introduction has been the reason for the extinction and decline of many native Australian species, especially terrestrial mammals including the Long-nosed

Kit foxes have exceptionally large and closely set ears. Their ears help spread the body heat in the desert like environments. Kit foxes typically have a slender and small body with long legs and a very puffy tail. Their tails stick straight out behind them, and it tipped in black. Kit foxes coats change with the seasons going from a rusty tan to grey in the summer, to a silvery grey color with a white belly in the winter. The kit fox's paws are suited to fit their environment with dense fur in between their paw pads; this gives the fox better traction on the sand of its habitat while also protecting the fox's feet from the heat of the desert sand. Most Kit foxes tend to be around 1.5 to 2 feet long, with a tail length of 8 to 12 inches long, and tend to weigh around 3.5 - 28 pounds (“Desert Kit Fox, section I,
The White-tail deer can often be found all over southern Canada and most parts of the United States. Their range extends throughout Central America to Bolivia. This sophisticated animal's habitat range is usually less than a square mile. Some of the White-tail deer's habitats include grasslands, prairies and plains, mountains, and forests. These deer prefer a more sheltered habitat; they often reside in forests, including hardwoods, coniferous, and tropical forests. However they may reside in forests such as tropical forests for a more sheltered habitat. The White-tale deer can adapt to their many habitats and they have incredibly strong muscles in their leg that allow them to run up to speeds such as 30 miles per hour! This is quite an advantage when it comes to running from predators. The White-tail deer has quite simple needs for a healthy life. Shelter from harmful weather or predators, food and water, and the space to find food and water, and to attract a mate.
Arctic fox is the smallest member of canine family. There are 5 subspecies of arctic fox that inhabit tundra throughout the Arctic Circle. Arctic fox can be found in Iceland, Greenland, Northern Europe, Russia, Canada and Alaska. These animals are numerous everywhere, except in Scandinavia. They were overhunted in the past because of their beautiful pelt. Even though arctic foxes are protected by law today, their number still drops due to climate changes and because of the expansion of the range of red fox (it hunts the same prey like arctic fox).
The Vulpes Vulpes (the red fox) adapt well to suburban and rural communities. Large predators have been pushed away from areas with humans however, red foxes “took advantage of the changed habitat”. “They live in parks and woodland edges and red foxes will readily eat whatever is available. Red foxes are solitary, so it is easy for them to hide and escape people” (National wildlife federation https://www.nwf.org/Wildlife/Wildlife-Library/Mammals/Red-Fox.aspx). Red foxes can be found throughout the United States from Alaska to Florida. The smallest population is in the Southwest, where it is not common to see a red fox. In New York state, a lot of red foxes can be found in places like upstate, long island and new Jersey in forests and therefore
Being a carnivore, the red fox feeds on flesh. It preys on other smaller predators like the kit fox and now it poses a threat to the population of the
The Fennec Fox lives in a desert environment, where it is very hot in the daytime, but can get very cold at night. They usually dwell in the deserts in northern Africa and the peninsula of Sinai. The deserts they are in usually stretch from Morocco, across Egypt, south to north Niger and Sudan, and east to Kuwait. This magnificent animal has many ways to help it survive. There are many ways the body saves the Fennec Fox, one being their built-in temperature regulators.
Images are a universal language that appeals to a wider audience through techniques that give the pictures meaning. Consequently, an individual is able to perceive the image in their own way depending on their level of knowledge. As a result, the audience is able to interpret both simple and complex ideas within the pictures according to their own understanding. John Marsden and Shaun Tan’s picture book The Rabbits demonstrates the different ways an individual may interpret narratives through techniques such as allegory, anthropomorphism and symbolism. Through these techniques, simple and complex ideas are communicated, and depending on a person’s knowledge, this reflects different ideas that the person may gather from
It is a necessity for kid foxes to inhabit area where soil quality is loos- texture, which allows them to construct dens. Dens are very important for this species, because they are nocturnal, their dens are crucial for protection during the day and from predators.
The wolverine (Gulo Gulo) is the largest species in the weasel family, however they only weight an average of 25 kg (website). Wolverines range across the majority of northern and western Canada, found in both tundra, taiga and forested area. The presence of topographical features such as bodies of water and mountain ranges seem to have no affect on the home-range of wolverines; the only significant factor negatively affecting wolverine habitation being human settlement (Strobeck). Wolverines have a varied diet consisting of lemmings, voles, ground squirrels, eggs, carrion, berries and roots. They have adapted this large diet as well as the skill of scavenging and caching food to account for the limited food that is sometimes available in the north. (webb & website)
These animals have developed a very smart skill when it comes to living in heat. Just like polar bears have fur to keep them warm, the black tailed jack rabbit has a large area
Hundreds of people hunt deer but are criticized for harming the ecosystem but how is the ecosystem affected and how would our economy be affected if hunting was banned? I think that these people criticizing hunters don't think about how the ecosystem and economy would be affected? Seeing as most people have their own unique reasons why they hunt but most of them simplify down to be the same thing.
There are over 30 different species of Canines in the world (Canidae. Wikipedia), and 18 of those species are foxes. Foxes are known for their cunning, and slyness. They are often portrayed as beady-eyed tricksters whose goal is to harm someone. One reason for this is because of their resilient ability to survive. No matter what is thrown at them, or what conditions they must live in, they always stand strong. One of the most resolute of them all is the small but fierce fennec fox.
Rabbits are strict herbivores and require a diet high in fibre. A balanced diet of grasses, hay and pellets needs to be provided in the correct ratio to ensure gastrointestinal tract motility. Adequate dental wear is required by high volumes of chewing of grasses and hay which minimises dental procedures. Rabbits require high quantities of fresh grass, dried grass products or hay and need up to 30-60g of dry food per body weight and containing at least 18% of fibre.
