Just... everywhere.

That noise outside? You bet your arse it's a fox.

That feeling at the back of your neck? A garden spider has definitely set up camp.

I'm dangerously close to 40 and have never seen a fox.

This seems insane to me. I see foxes at least every month.

I literally just had a pair yelling their terrifying night music outside my window.

They're common as fucking pigeons in towns and cities.

What kind of place do you live, are you in the countryside? Weirdly they are more visible in towns because the ones there DGAF; country foxes are sneaky but I've still seen them a few times.

Also, they get hunted if they wander into the wrong part of ~~town~~ country-side.

I grew up in a village in the countryside and now live right on the edge of a village. But I've also lived in Cardiff and Lancaster and didn't see any there.

Yeah you don't see them very often, even in the country, last time I can remember seeing one was in the yard of an Amazon warehouse but I'm sure I've seen a few since then

Can confirm, I live very close to the town centre and every now and then foxes make their mating call right on the street lol

Used to get foxes roam into my patio like every few weeks

Had one hang out in Breckenridge patrolling the rentals since tourists will feed them.
