A crow, having stolen a bit of meat, perched on a tree and was ab out to begin her feast… A fox saw everything and thought,”If I can make that piece of meat mine, I would have no worry for my dinner!”
Then he walked up to the foot of the tree and cried out to the crow,”Madam Crow, you are so beautiful today! Your feathers are so smooth and shiny. It’s just that I’ve never heard you sing. I wonder if your voice is better than the nightingale’s. If it is, you deserve to be considered the Queen of Birds!”
The crow enjoyed the flattering words. Eager to prove that she had a voice more beautiful than the nightingale’s, she gave a loud caw, at the same time dropping the meat, only to be snapped up by the fox.
“That will do,” said he. “That was all I wanted. In exchange for your meat I will give you a piece of advice for the future: Do not trust flatterers. If only you had some wits, you could become the Queen of Birds.“

The red fox has orangish-red fur on its back, sides and head. It has white
fur under its neck and on its chest. It has a long bushy tail tipped in white, pointed black ears and black legs and feet.
The red fox eats a wide variety of foods. It is an omnivore and its diet includes fruits, berries and grasses. It also eats birds and small mammals like squirrels, rabbits and mice. A large part of the red fox’s diet is made up invertebrates like crickets, caterpillars, grasshoppers, beetles and crayfish.
The red fox will continue to hunt even when it is full. It stores extra food under leaves, snow or dirt. The red fox is mostly nocturnal, although it will sometimes venture out in the day. The red fox, unlike other mammals, hears low-frequency sounds very well. It can hear small animals digging underground and will frequently dig in the dirt or snow to catch prey. The fox stalks its prey, much like a cat. It gets as close as it can and then pounces and chases its prey.
Except for breeding females, the fox doesn’t usually use a den. Sometimes it will sleep in the open, wrapping its bushy tail around its nose to stay warm. When it does use a den, it will usually find an abandoned rabbit or marmot den instead of making its own den.
