Foxes are not dangerous, there is a small risk with any wild animal that Rabies (rabies lyssavirus) could change their behaviour but Rabies is exceptionally rare in the UK and for the most part Foxes will run rather than fight. There is a lot of love in the UK for the Red Fox, in many ways it's very British.

There are no shortages of Seaguls round here, the Herring Gull in particular is hard to avoid (especially when they attack you to during nesting season) - so in many ways I'm more concerned about being attacked by the gull than a fox.

Thanks again for your comment :)

This is very interesting, thank you for the enlightenment.
