dymented 2,220 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 info on red fox the red fox is built much more lightly, being half as massive as other canids of equal size. Several of it´s bones are narrower than those of other dogs, and the limb bones are built much more lightly. Body mass is further reduced by a stomach that is proportionately half as large as other canines´. This reduction of weight allows a fox to run extremely quickly (trotting speed is between 6-13 km/h and speeds up to 72 km/h ( 44.74 Miles/hour ) have been cited), and with great agility. Foxes are also very good swimmers and their disproportionately long hind legs give them a tremendous leaping ability of up to 2m vertically Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scothunter 12,609 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 a full greyhound in three strides can reach a speed of 45mph some have exceeded that.A fox would never get close to that imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
