A baby fox is called a kit or cub. Foxes belong to the Canidae family, which also includes dogs, wolves, and other similar animals. When a fox is born, it is referred to as a kit or cub. These terms are used interchangeably to describe young foxes. Kits are born blind and rely on their mother for care and protection. As they grow, they develop the skills needed to survive in the wild. The term ‘kit’ is more commonly used, but ‘cub’ is also correct and widely understood.
