Abstract

Camera traps deployed at a badger Meles meles set in mixed pine forest in north-eastern Poland recorded interspecific killing of red fox Vulpes vulpes cubs by pine marten Martes martes. The vixen and her cubs settled in the set at the beginning of May 2013, and it was abandoned by the badgers shortly afterwards. Five fox cubs were recorded playing in front of the den each night. Ten days after the first recording of the foxes, a pine marten was filmed at the set; it arrived in the morning, made a reconnaissance and returned at night when the vixen was away from the set. The pine marten entered the den several times and killed at least two fox cubs. It was active at the set for about 2 h. This observation proves that red foxes are not completely safe from predation by smaller carnivores, even those considered to be subordinate species in interspecific competition.

“反向”野生捕食:红狐幼崽被松貂杀死。
在波兰东北部的混交松林中的獾群中设置的相机陷阱记录了红狐狐幼崽被松貂马特斯马特斯杀死的情况。2013年5月初,这只雌狐和她的幼崽们定居在这里,不久之后就被獾抛弃了。每天晚上都有五只小狐狸在洞穴前玩耍。在第一次记录狐狸的十天后,一只松貂在片场被拍摄下来;它在早上到达,进行了侦察,并在晚上雌狐离开片场时返回。这只松貂多次进入洞穴,杀死了至少两只狐狸幼崽。这一观察结果证明,在小型食肉动物的捕食下,红狐并不是完全安全的,即使是那些在种间竞争中被认为是从属物种的动物。
