Experimental infection of red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) with Sarcoptes scabiei var. vulpes

Veterinary Parasitology, 1984
Two of 3 red foxes became experimentally infected with Sarcoptes scabiei v. vulpes isolated from a naturally infected wild fox. The first clinical sign was seen after 10 days. After 30 days hairless patches were observed on the back of one of the foxes while general hair loss continued slowly.

Vulpes vulpes (Common fox)

1974
The X chromosome is identifiable because it is the largest chromosome with highly unequal arm ratio. The identification of the Y is subjective because the two “microchromosome”-like autosomes are of similar size. It is also questionable whether the Y is biarmed.

Trichinella spiralis in the Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) in Ireland

Nature, 1969
SINCE 1835 when Owen1 described the species Trichinella spiralis from man in London, trichinosis has occurred occasionally, sometimes in epidemics, in both Britain and Ireland as well as being endemic in some parts of the world. While infection in wildlife has been reported in at least sixty-five species of mammal2, the primary reservoirs are ...

Reproductive management of silver foxes (Vulpes vulpes) in captivity

Theriogenology, 2000
Specific protocols need to be developed that take into consideration the requirements of silver foxes. This study was designed to investigate the reproduction of 26 pairs of silver foxes (Vulpes vulpes). Reproduction parameters (breeding season, age at puberty, fecundity and fertility) of the foxes were examined under experimental conditions, and new ...

Acute Disseminated Toxoplasmosis in a Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes)

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1990
A red fox (Vulpes vulpes) with signs of neurological disease was captured in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (USA). The animal died in captivity and was examined because of suspected rabies. The liver had pale foci up to 4 mm in diameter. Foci of necrosis were associated with Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites in several organs including liver ...

Genetics of Interactive Behavior in Silver Foxes (Vulpes vulpes)

Behavior Genetics, 2016
Individuals involved in a social interaction exhibit different behavioral traits that, in combination, form the individual's behavioral responses. Selectively bred strains of silver foxes (Vulpes vulpes) demonstrate markedly different behaviors in their response to humans.

Successful embryo transfer in the silver fox (Vulpes vulpes)

Animal Reproduction Science, 1998
Surgical embryo transfer in the silver fox was investigated as part of a larger project concerning the conservation of endangered canine species using modern artificial reproduction techniques with the farmed fox as a model. The animals were chosen on the basis of synchrony in natural oestrus.

Variations of the chromosome number in the red fox (Vulpes vulpes)

Chromosoma, 1971
The chromosome number in peripheral blood cells of five individuals of Vulpes vulpes (Red Fox) is shown to vary between 35 and 39. This variation is due to loss or gain of the smallest autosome, which it is suggested is heterochromatic and does not have any major influence on the phenotype.

Intestinal parasites of the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) in Slovenia

Acta Veterinaria Hungarica, 2013
In the present study, 428 foxes were collected and examined for intestinal helminths using the washing-out method. Parasites were found in 93.2% of the examined animals. The most frequently identified nematodes were Uncinaria stenocephala (58.9%), Toxocara canis (38.3%) and Molineus patens (30.6%).

Vulpes vulpes: A Possible Wild Reservoir for Zoonotic Filariae

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2008
Foxes ( Vulpes vulpes , n = 132) killed during the hunting seasons 2005–2006 in Central Italy (Tuscany region) were examined in order to investigate the possible importance of this animal as a wild reservoir for zoonotic filariae. In each specimen adult
