No, I don't know enough about them.
I do wildlife control for a living, have for 10 years, this was the first baby fox I have encountered.

We stumbled upon several fawns this year. One was still wobbly legged which means born within the last hour or so. We walked right up on several others that were just a day or two old. My wife has a birthday on 6-4 so she thinks God gives her fawns for a present each year. I pass a couple of twins each morning driving through the pasture. Haven't heard any coyotes this year and no fox in two years on my place but there are plenty nearby. My place is simply loaded with jacks and squirrels this year so that ought to bring in some predators. The squirrels are eating all my tomatoes before they ripen. It's really dry here this year. I'm prolly gonna take out a few squirrels so I can have a few tomatoes. I usually get sack fulls every week. Dang squirrels, this must be their way of getting at me for all the pds I took in May.

Here is a picture of a coyote pup that was caught at the Camp Pendelton Marine Base a few years ago. The game wardens on the base were raising it, and it was later released on the base. It was quite tame.

I haven't seen any coyote pups but I have seen a ton of fawns the past few weeks, I'm talking 20-25. I've been out camping at the local lake and it is chalk full of deer. I saw two dandy bucks in full velet this past Saturday as well!
It's more important where ya hit 'em, than what ya hit 'em with.
