of wild moments occurring in the Iowa landscape. Whether

Iowa's Wildlife - Vulpes vulpes - Springtime at a Red Fox Den
|
Vulpes vulpes, more commonly
known as the red fox, is one of Iowa's most beautiful mammals.
For many people their only view of a red fox running wild in
Iowa is nothing more than a fleeting glimpse, often seen from
the windshield of a car.
Over the years Kip Ladage has
enjoyed shooting images at several fox dens. None of his
previous fox work compares to the opportunity he enjoyed this
past spring. Kip was able to document the many activities of
young fox over a nine-week period. Whether the animals were
sleeping or scuffling, his camera was there.
This book features some of
Kip's favorite images from his time at the den. Some of the
images are of the "warm and fuzzy" nature while
other images document the fox for what they are - efficient
predators.
The fox have matured and moved
from their den. Now, all that remain are many memories of
their younger days featured in this book: Moments With Iowa's
Wildlife - Vulpes vulpes (Red Fox).
