This is another thread, I guess, of the sound-source discussion earlier, but those recommendations didn't pan out for us. For an exhibit, we need sources of gray fox and red fox sounds. We want the North American foxes; one source had only a recording from Great Britain. We have contacted the sound libraries at Cornell University [they had only birds] and the California Library of Natural Sounds [Oakland, CA]. Our Curator of Natural History is trying the source in Ohio that was mentioned in the previous discussion about sound sources [I forget the name, but we have the number]. Given our low success rate, does anybody know of any other sources? Possibly: researchers studying foxes; special collections; private companies that manufacture predator calls [we're going to try some of those?] Foxes don't howl at the moon like wolves or coyotes, but they bark to one another or something - so there's some sound-based process going on. The question is, who among Homo sapiens has a record of these sounds? Off-list or on-list replies are encouraged [the List is how I found the source in Ohio]. ======================================================================= Fred R.
