Red Fox

In this archived broadcast, The Red Fox, John Weeks talks about the latest issue of one of his magazine's he receives features and article on the red fox. The fox is only 10-15 pounds, 3 feet in length and 15 inches in height. The Red Fox does not compare to any other types of foxes. The foxes are not worthy of their reputation. The Red Fox are full of great tails and they are quick animals. Weeks then tells the story about the first time he saw a Red Fox.
