Wildlife writer

David Lewis is a wildlife writer and photographer has travelled to many parts of theworld. He being interviewed by Anna Douglas. One of his books was based wild animals in South America - principally the armadillo.

However, he has the last 18 months studying the urban fox in London, he lives. He up his mind about his new project while travelling back home train. It was half past three in the afternoon and suddenly he noticed what he thought was a brown dog sitting in the sunshine. he realised it wasn't a dog, it was a fox.

People usually think that foxes open country, but are foxes that now live on the outskirts of London, instance, near Crystal Palace Park. David is fairly convinced that, most certainly, these few specimens came following the railway tracks. They don't particularly aggressive as they can easily food in dustbins, rubbish dumps, which provide rich pickings not for foxes but also for cats.

So far, in his stidies he has found no of foxes attacking domestic animal. In the Wild, they sometimes attack lambs.
