We are privileged to host a very special visitor at Quinta do Lago golf courses: the red fox (Vulpes vulpes). This intelligent and adaptable creature brings a captivating touch of wild nature to our stunning landscape. Beyond its beauty and elusive charm, the red fox plays an important ecological role on the course. As a natural predator, it helps maintain balance by controlling populations of small mammals and insects, reducing the need for external pest control.
Its presence also symbolises the harmony between our golf course and the surrounding ecosystem, showcasing our commitment to biodiversity and sustainability. By providing a safe habitat, we not only enhance the natural appeal of our courses but also contribute to local wildlife conservation. Encounters with this remarkable animal serve as a reminder that golf and nature can thrive together.
