Story

It is always interesting to find wild life such as carnivorous mammalian predators in urban areas. This small family Foxes were camping in Breckenridge's Main Street. At the time we got there, there was already a small crowd of people taking people and pointing at the small family of foxes not bothered at all about the tourist chatter and invasion of their privacy.

After reading a bit about these interesting mammals, I came to realize that they are kind of a usual sighting since they share a similar urban habitat with raccoons. A very interesting page dedicated to urban foxes, their ecology, behavior, and diet can be found in this page by foxes.org
