Questions children ask

What is a baby fox called?

A baby fox is most often called a kit. Cub and pup are also used. A group of kits born together is a litter.

What is a baby owl called?

A baby owl is an owlet. Once it leaves the nest but still cannot fly well it is often called a fledgling, like other young birds.

Why do so many baby animals share a name?

English reuses a handful of words. Cub covers bears and big cats, calf covers cattle, elephants and whales, pup covers dogs and seals, and kit covers foxes and rabbits. The farm animals kept their own older words: lamb, foal, piglet, kid.
