Among red foxes, juveniles are usually targeted as prey, though golden eagles can kill foxes of any age or condition, including fully grown red foxes heavier than the eagles themselves. Occasionally, other canids such as common raccoon dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides) and even coyotes (Canis latrans), from pups to appar...
