File name: West Ham fox cubs

Classification: Mammals and other animals

Common name: Red Fox

Scientific name: Vulpes vulpes

Recorded by: Genghis Attenborough

Recording date and time: 2 March 2009

Location: West Ham cemetery

Duration: 1:12

Description: Two young foxes in a play fight in West Ham cemetery. I sneaked up behind a wall and recorded them for a while. I peered over the wall to discover they were only about four metres away. They were locked with paws on each other's shoulders screaming at each other.

Technical guff: High pass filter used to eliminate wind noise on recording.
