📋 About This Mod
Foxes are labeled as ' Prey ' in Skyrim, which makes sense if it's being chased by a Troll or a Giant Frostbite Spider.
However, Foxes need to eat, too! So now if a Fox sees a Rabbit/Hare or a Chicken it will hunt it down. Just like their pesky counterparts in real life!
Compatibilities: This mod should be compatible with almost any mod. All it does is adds two new factions to the game. No scripts, no models or textures, and nothing in the worldspace edited.
