In the history of Western literature, no animal except perhaps the wolf, has stirred tlle human imagination more than the fox. Fables and legends passed down through the ages have guaranteed the fox a place in our cultural heritage, and tlle words "cunning," "crafty," and "sly" have become synonymous Witll the name "fox." An old "fox," meaning a person with the aforementioned traits, has the same meaning today that it had at the time of Chaucer. The fox looks weak and small when compared with the larger wolf, but his intelligence and daring have insured his survival, whereas the wolf was exterminated from most of his European range during the Middle Ages. When the great forests were feHed for shipbuilding and the early smelting industry, tlle wolf's habitat was destroyed, while tlle fox, like tlle Nortll American coyote, learned to live within humanmodified habitats, and today can even be found within the city limits of large urban centres. Despite concerted efforts to destroy the fox, the species has shown remarkable adaptive success. The wolf was hunted for sport by the medieval nobility, and persecuted by and sheep. When he disappeared, the nobles turned reluctantly to fox hunting, which has culminated in the barbaric cultural ritual of the modern fox hunt. The fox also supplanted the wolf as the main object of detestation for farmers, who blamed him for the disappearance of their poultry, and pursued him as relentlessly as they had formerly chased the wolf. With the increase in sheep farming, the fox was also condemned for predating new-born lambs. According to the biologist Erik Zimen:
