Samenvatting
Discover the hidden world of the fox, as beautifully revealed by an acclaimed ecologist who has studied foxes for two decades across four continents
An ode to this familiar yet mysterious creature. The sight of foxes can lift Brand's prose into poetry. ... By turns lyrical, salty, funny and scholarly. New York Times Book Review
The fox. For thousands of years myth and folklore have celebrated its cunning intelligence. Today the red fox is the natures most populous carnivore, its dancing orange tail a common sight in backyards. Yet who is this wild neighbor, truly? How do we negotiate this uneasy new chapter of an ancient relationship? Join British ecologist Adele Brand on a journey to discover the surprising secrets of the fabled fox, the familiar yet enigmatic creature that has adapted to the human world with astonishingsome say, unsettlingsuccess.
Brand has studied foxes for twenty years across four continentsfrom the Yucatán rainforest to Indias remote Thar Desert, from subarctic Canada to metropolitan London. Her observations have convinced her that the fox is arguably the most modern of all wildlife, uniquely suited to survival in the rapidly expanding urban/wild interface. Blending cutting-edge science, cultural anthropology, and intimate personal storytelling drawn from her own remarkable fieldwork, The Hidden World of the Fox is Brands rich and revelatory portrait of the extraordinary animal she has devoted her life to understanding.
