Fox Group Behavior: Learning to Forage and Hunt

Learn how adult foxes provide for their cubs and how the cubs transition to fending for themselves as adults in this video from NATURE: “Fox Tales.” Surprisingly, the male fox plays a major role in caring for the young cubs. In the accompanying classroom activity, students analyze data about the changes in the cubs’ diet as they mature.

Additional support materials are available, including discussion questions, teaching tips, and a handout. For more resources from NATURE, check out the collection page.
