Not as much information was available on the breeding of the grey fox as there is of other species. They are known to give birth in a variety of places. Natal dens can be found in burrows, tree hollows, and crevices. One to ten kits may be born between mid-march and mid-june, although the average litter numbers about four. Although the kits are capable of hunting on their own by their fourth month, they remain on their parent’s home range longer than other foxes. Dispersal occurs between January and February. |
