The Importance of Riboflavin, Pantothenic Acid, Niacin and Pyridoxine in the Nutrition of Foxes1

Two Figures

Department of Biochemistry and Veterinary Science, University of Wisconsin, Madison

The importance of riboflavin, pantothenic acid, niacin and pyridoxine in the rations for growing fox pups has been clearly established. The deficiency symptoms when 1 of the above vitamins is missing from the ration closely resemble those observed in dogs. The rate with which the deficiencies develop is as rapid, and in numerous instances even more rapid, in fox pups than in dogs.
