The Hidden World of the Fox
- Price
- $17.99
The fox. For thousands of years, myth and folklore have celebrated its cunning intelligence. Today, the red fox is nature’s most populous carnivore, its dancing orange tail a common sight in backyards. Yet who is this wild neighbor, truly? How do we negotiate this uneasy new chapter of an ancient relationship?
Join British ecologist Adele Brand on a journey to discover the surprising secrets of the fabled fox, the familiar yet enigmatic creature that has adapted to the human world with astonishing — some say, unsettling — success. Brand has studied foxes for twenty years across four continents — from the Yucatán rainforest to India’s remote Thar Desert, from subarctic Canada to metropolitan London.
