Predators of the Arctic Fox include the mighty Polar bear, Golden Eagles, Snowy Owls, wolves and Red Foxes. Disease is always a threat with distemper and rabies being the worse. Man is another predator, killing the Arctic Fox to sell its much sought after fur. Although the overall population of the Arctic fox is not threatened there are two sub-specie populations that are in danger of becoming extinct. There are the ones located on Medny Island in Russia and the other is the Fennoscandia population located in Norway Finland and Sweden. An Arctic fox living in the wild has an average lifespan of 3 to 6 years.
Help these beautiful animals...thank you!
