Climbing Trees Helps Protect These Foxes From Coyotes

[UngulateNerd92]

Foxes are known for being fast and clever, but one species of fox has another, little-known trait that can help them survive alongside coyotes: gray foxes can climb trees.

A new study has found that the presence of trees might help gray foxes survive alongside coyotes in the countryside, and that’s likely because of their unique ability to climb trees. The study, “The effect of urbanization on spatiotemporal interactions between gray foxes and coyotes,” was published in the journal Ecosphere.

Interesting, kind of like the canid version of the leopard's relationship with lions and tigers.

Interesting observation, I can see the parallels.
