Fox (Skyrim)

Foxes are wild creatures found in ​The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. They are passive to the player and wander freely through forests ocassionally witnessed hunting other wildlife, such as rabbits. They can be hunted for their Pelt, though when attacked they will not fight back unless Courage or frenzy is cast on them or if they are possessed by a Spriggan.

There are two species of Fox, which differ only in coloration. The normal Red Foxes can be found almost anywhere, from Riverwood to Whiterun, from Riften to Kynesgrove. Snow Foxes live farther north, in snowy regions, such as the coastline between Solitude and Dawnstar.

Rather than kill a fox and loot it for its pelt, which is the equivalent to a goat's hide, the fox should be followed to see where it goes; it will always lead to a secret entrances or such in the area.
