  Fox \Fox\ (f[o^]ks), n.; pl. {Foxes}. [AS. fox; akin to D. vos,
     G. fuchs, OHG. fuhs, foha, Goth. fa['u]h[=o], Icel. f[=o]a
     fox, fox fraud; of unknown origin, cf. Skr. puccha tail. Cf.
     {Vixen}.]
     1. (Zool.) A carnivorous animal of the genus {Vulpes}, family
        {Canid[ae]}, of many species. The European fox ({V.


        vulgaris} or {V. vulpes}), the American red fox ({V.
        fulvus}), the American gray fox ({V. Virginianus}), and
        the arctic, white, or blue, fox ({V. lagopus}) are
        well-known species.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     Note: The black or silver-gray fox is a variety of the
           American red fox, producing a fur of great value; the

           the same species, of less value. The common foxes of
           Europe and America are very similar; both are
           celebrated for their craftiness. They feed on wild
           birds, poultry, and various small animals.
