Farah the Fox

Farah is an expert on “wastewater,” or the water that leaves our homes. She teaches us where wastewater goes, how it’s cleaned at a treatment plant, and what we can do to make the process easier (like not pouring cooking oil and grease down the sink or flushing wipes down the toilet). Farah also teaches us about water reuse and the concept of “One Water.”

Farah is a Red Fox. She lives with her parents in a den by Lavon Lake, and she spends her time hunting and playing with her three siblings. Foxes can smell and hear really well, which helps them track down their food — usually small rodents. (Foxes can hear a mouse squeaking from over 300 feet away.) Foxes like Farah are fast and can jump over 6-foot-high fences.
