just as dogs and cats Do it's simple to reduce say a dog's vocalizations to bark
The most commonly heard red fox vocalizations are a quick series of barks and a scream-y variation on a howl.
The barks are a sort of ow-wow-wow-wow but very high-pitched almost yippy. It's commonly mistaken for an owl hooting.
That bark sequence is thought to be an identification system; studies indicate that foxes can tell each other apart by this call.
The bark and scream and very loud so they're often heard but most other fox vocalizations are quiet
which up close sounds like a cough but from afar sounds like a sharp bark and is used mostly by fox parents to alert youngsters to danger.

Two technicians in a nearby Boston Whaler cradle a small torpedo-shaped craft then lower it into the water.

But existing ships that were moored still had antiaircraft. So for him to come in and land here it would have been to pick somebody up.
