What Noise Does A Fox Make?

Foxes are beautiful sly animals that have been loved by humans for hundreds of years, and they can be found across the globe.

There are many different types of foxes; for example, in America, you will find the grey fox, the red fox in England, and the arctic fox can be found in the northern hemisphere.

But one common question that is often asked is, what noise do they make?

The mystery of the sound of a fox has echoed through popular culture for many years, through examples such as the song “what does the fox say,” which was released in 2013 by Ylvis, but have you ever heard one?

Foxes are close relatives of dogs, so their vocal cords are also capable of barking.

They share many traits with dogs, such as wagging tales when they are happy or excited and growling when angry or threatened.

As well as barking from time to time, foxes can sometimes howl just like wolves.

But they also have some unique traits too. One of these is their scream or cry!

Most foxes will bark to communicate and cry or scream on rarer occasions.

Different breeds of foxes have different pitched screams; the red fox has the highest pitch.

This eerie sound is often mistaken for humans screaming or shrieking for help.

This comparable sound to human screams has created confusion and great mystery around the fox scream.
