Red Fox, (Vulpes vulpes), lies dead on the road following collision with a vehicle, London, United Kingdom

---

Red foxes have been successful in colonising built-up environments, especially lower-density suburbs and now inner cities such as London, UK. Throughout the twentieth century, they established themselves in many Australian, European, Japanese, and North American cities. In 2006 it was estimated that there were 10,000 foxes in London. City-dwelling foxes may have the potential to consistently grow larger than their rural counterparts, as a result of abundant scraps and a relative dearth of predators. In cities foxes may scavenge food from litter bins and bin bags, although much of their diet will also be similar to rural foxes.
