Why does diesel mechanic redirect here?

edit

I mean maybe some diesel mechanics have dogs, and those dogs are similar to foxes, but I think the redirect system is broken. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Diesel_mechanic&redirect=no — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.7.135.66 (talk) 02:57, 16 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Does this section describe the timing worldwide or just the northern hemisphere? 116.251.32.210 (talk) 23:30, 19 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Darwin’s fox conservation status

edit

On this article it says that Darwin’s foxes are considered critically endangered, but on the IUCN Red List website it says that they are endangered https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/41586/107263066 should it be changed on here? Chickensarecool33 (talk) 01:46, 9 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

It used to be critically endangered (in the 2004 and 2008 assessments), but was downgraded to endangered in 2016. I've updated the article. —  Jts1882 | talk  11:33, 9 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Attack mention relevance

edit

> In 2018, a Clapham fox bit a woman on the arm after she had left the door to her flat open.

This one sentence seems irrelevant to the main article. One source being an interview of a woman who happened to be bitten doesn’t teach about the general behaviour of the species.

Since it’s only a single sentence without context, I suggest removing the whole Attack header altogether, unless it gets replaced by actual study material about the attack behaviour of foxes towards humans. Jasperiscool (talk) 12:10, 6 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
