Super cute gray foxes - Elkhorn Slough Foundation

You can help protect gray foxes and their habitat by becoming a member of the Elkhorn Slough Foundation. http://www.elkhornslough.org/memship.htm This is a montage of a gray fox family living beneath the house of Celeste Stanik, who lives nearby an Elkhorn Slough Foundation nature preserve. Young baby foxes are called kits. Kits are typically born in the spring and live together with mom until they reach sexual maturity sometime in the fall. Gray foxes are monogamous. In the video you can see the mother come out of the den and greet the father with two kits in tow. Gray foxes are one of only two canine species in the world that have curved claws which allow them to climb up trees. This allows for gray foxes to not only forage for food but avoid being eaten by other larger predators like coyotes, or mountain lions.
