Rocky Fox Den

December 13, 2020  •  Leave a Comment

While camping in the mountains outside of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks, I was pleasantly surprised to find a fox den in a very rocky area.

Even though I know that foxes create their dens in a variety of environments, such as a hole dug in the dirt or under a house's back porch, I wasn't expecting this pile of sizeable boulders to house a den.

Over the course of a few days, I observed the den and saw two babies come out to explore the world. Great fun to see the two kits explore while at the same time being very cautious!

Here are some images of the kits.
