Foxes are social animals and live in loose family groups. These are normally made up of a breeding male, female and their young. The litter of four or five cubs, which are born in an underground den, are then cared for by both the male and female. By autumn, the cubs are fully self-sufficient. Some will leave to establish their own territories, while others may remain with the family group. Those that stay sometimes help their parents to raise the following year’s young.

Pine Marten Greetings Card by The Wildlife Trusts
£2.95Pine Marten Greetings Card by The Wildlife Trusts
The Pine Marten greetings card by The Wildlife Trusts is blank inside for your own message and is ideal for birthdays, moving house and other celebrations.
Related to otters and weasels, the pine marten was once one of the most common UK carnivores. Today it is one of the rarest. Loss of habitat, the fur industry and predator control associated with game shooting caused a dramatic decline in the pine marten population during the 19th century and by the early 20th century, the species was close to extinction. They are now being reintroduced in a number of locations, and should they thrive, there could also be a knock on effect for the red squirrel as the pine marten is partial to a grey squirrel, which is the red’s main competition!

Otters were once a common sight in British rivers but suffered a decline in the 1970s due to the pesticides then used in farming. These have now been withdrawn and the otter is making a remarkable come back. That said, they’re secretive and swim low in the water so are hard to spot!
