  1. Leolupus is entirely correct.


  2. chicken ducks pheasant rabbits birds of all kind mice insects and fruits

  3. The red fox (the only fox species found in the UK) is omnivorous, and will eat virtually anything. They are fond of fruit and berries, but their diet is three-quarters meat. Their most common prey are rabbits, hares and rodents (such as rats, mice and voles). They will also eat birds, such as pheasants and ducks, invertebrates such as insects and earthworms, and even smaller predators such as stoats and weasels. Despite what your first answer says, foxes, like other animals, rarely eat shrews - shrews possess a venom gland in their backs which makes them distasteful to most predators. Owls are immune to this and are the only animals that commonly prey on them.

    In urban areas, foxes tend to hunt less and scavenge more, making a good living from the food we wasteful humans throw away.
