Red foxes bark or howl.

Red Fox Howl

The screamy howl is most often heard during the breeding season, in the springtime and is terrifying.

It is believed that this call is used by female foxes to lure male foxes for mating – though males have been found to make this sound occasionally as well.

The most unusual red fox sound is called “gekkering.” It is a guttural chattering with occasional yelps and howls and is heard amongst adults in aggressive encounters and also amongst young kits playing.

Red Fox Bark

In contrast, the barks are a sort of very high-pitched ow-wow-wow-wow and is thought to be an identification sound. It’s commonly mistaken for an owl hooting.

The bark and scream are very loud, so they’re often heard, but most other fox vocalizations are quiet and used for communication between individuals in close proximity.

The red fox alarm call sounds like a cough up close but like a sharp bark from afar, and is mostly used by fox parents to alert youngsters to danger.

So What Does The Fox Say?

The cries of the red fox can sound surprisingly similar to a human in distress or being tortured.

Males give a short “scream” in aggression, and females “shriek” as a mating call.

Do you know how the cheetah sounds like. It’s actually pretty funny!
