"I adore the fox for its magnificence; I hate the fox for killing my
chickens. To love and loathe the fox is a British condition."The fox is
our apex predator, our most beautiful and clever killer. We have
witnessed its wild touch, watched it slink by bins at night and been
chilled by its high-pitched scream.
And yet we long to stroke
the tumbling cubs outside their tunnel homes and watch the vixen stalk
the cornfield. There is something about foxes. They captivate us like no
other species.
Exploring a long and sometimes complicated
relationship, The Wild Life of the Fox captures our love - and sometimes
loathing - of this magnificent creature in vivid detail and lyrical
prose.
