• Several fox species are endangered in their native

environments ( the forest)
• Pressures placed on foxes include habitat loss and
being hunted for pelts, other trade, or control
• Due in part to their opportunistic hunting style
and industriousness, foxes are commonly
resented as nuisance animals.
•  On the other hand, foxes, while often considered
pests themselves, have been successfully
employed to control pests on fruit farms while
leaving the fruit intact.
