    hares, rabbits and badgers. None of these animals are dangerous. They live in the woods.
    Rabbits make large burrows in the ground and they live there during the year. Their food consists of grass.
    The fox lives in the wood. They make dens and they live there all through the year. The fox usually makes his den in old ditches. He eats birds. During the night he tries to get into hen houses to steal the fowl. He is very cunning.
