Red Rising is the first book in a sci-fi/sci-fantasy series by the same name. But if you need more information, here’s everything you need to know, sans major spoilers. If you don’t have the time to read this, the short answer is: Yes, read Red Rising. Which is why I thought it well worth the time to put together this cheat-sheet about the Red Rising series to help you decide whether or not you really should check it out. But hearing something is great isn’t always enough to get you to commit to a new series.

Red foxes live on a diet of small mammals, birds and plant matter (including various fruits, grasses, sedges and tubers).Let me guess, someone with great taste in books told you to check out the Red Rising series. They then pounce on or dig up that area to catch prey off guard. They are able to detect low frequency sounds of small animals underground or under snow. They have an exceptional sense of smell and hearing to help them catch prey. Many people mistake the smell of fox urine for a skunk. The red fox marks its territory with its very skunky smelling urine. No matter what their main fur color, a red fox will always have the distinguishing white tip of fur on its tail. Less common, their coats can be black, grey, brown, silver or a combination of these. The most common color coat for the red fox is a reddish-orange but red foxes do not have to be red. Once the young are mature enough to be on their own the parents will go their own separate ways until the start of the next breeding season.Ĭurrently, red fox, Scarlet, resides in the Ralph Perkins II Wildlife Center & Woods Garden (presented by KeyBank) at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. Although they are monogamous, males and females only come together to breed and raise young. Red foxes are nocturnal and solitary for much of the year.

When humans began to settle in this area and cut down trees for farmland, red foxes began to move into the area, as this is their preferred habitat. This species of fox was uncommon in the state of Ohio until after human settlement. Red foxes typically live in wooded areas that also contain open brush lands. The red fox is one of two species of fox in Ohio, the other being the grey fox.
