Red Fox

Vulpes vulpes

Description:

I was out on walk on a cold winter morning when this fox appeared. It was looking for food and not afraid at all. It gave me plenty of time to take some pictures!

Habitat:

The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) is the largest of the true foxes, as well as being the most geographically spread member of the Carnivora, being distributed across the entire northern hemisphere from the Arctic Circle to North Africa, Central America, and the steppes of Asia. Here in a mixture of open grass land, water and some trees in a Dutch National Park.

Nope, I did not feed it.
I know some people do, but I think we should respect nature here.

@Long-island9, I don't think it was angry, I'd say it was rather curious and looking for something to eat.
