Fox Den Cam

Welcome to the 2025 red fox den camera. We have an active red fox den with six kits on camera and streaming live! It’s been seven years since we last had the chance to showcase one of nature’s most elusive and fascinating mammals in real-time, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome them back!

The den is located in a quiet, wooded area with minimal disturbance, giving us a rare, front-row seat to one of the most intimate parts of a red fox’s life: raising a family. So far, activity around the den has been picking up, and we’re hopeful that we’ll soon get to see the vixen tending to her kits as they grow and start to explore the world just beyond the safety of the den entrance.

Why It Matters:
Red foxes are notoriously secretive during denning season, and it’s not easy to find an active den, let alone set up a camera that doesn’t interfere with their natural behavior. This camera setup allows us—and you—to watch these animals from a respectful distance while gaining insight into their daily lives, parenting behaviors, and the development of the kits.

Whether you’re a longtime follower of our streams or just discovering the magic of watching wildlife live, this is a rare and special opportunity you won’t want to miss.

Camera Information

The camera is streaming from a farm location in Southwestern Pennsylvania. The den site is at the edge of a field which has been used by red fox in previous years. We are running 500′ of power from a house to the den site and picking up WiFi from 1/4 mile from another house.

Red Fox Information

Red Foxes mate in the winter and the female fox gives birth to a litter of 2-12 “kits” in the spring. The kits are dark gray in color at the time of birth, but grow a new coat within a month. Both the male and female fox cares for the kits until they are ready to leave in the fall. Foxes are omnivores who hunt mainly small rodents, birds and rabbits. However, they will occasionally eat vegetables, fruit, mice, and fish.
