Hi friend,

They ambush-hunt and pounce like a cat, then eat the prey in the same manner as any small dog.

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU:-))

EXPLANATION:

When the fox has a smart thought where its quarry is, it approaches gradually, halting habitually to tune in and, when it gets inside striking separation, it raises on to its rear legs, twists its knees and hops up, arriving with its front paws on its quarry, which is immediately gobbled up. In certain occasions the hop is generally 'shallow', with the fox arrival with front and back legs all the while.

If it catches rats or rodents, it doesn’t bites or chews it, whereas it completely swallows it. On the other hand if it catches a bird, the foxes will first removes the breast feather with their incisors before biting and then bites the bird and chews it with their molars. In case of animals also it uses both the incisors and molars to tear the flesh.
