Spring is here and in the animal kingdom, that means babies. Lots and lots of babies.
Ancaster, Ontario is nestled within the Niagara escarpment and full of wooded areas.

ALSO IN ANIMALS:
Foxes typically breed near the end of December and their pups are born between March and May.
Young foxes begin to play outside when they're about a month old, and start to venture out on their own once they've reached three months.
