    King Voracious 
Voiced by: Rob Rackstraw
  • Big Bad: The current leader of the Foxearth pack and the main villain of the show, with the other foxes as his underlings.
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Despite being a villainous jerkass most of the times, Voracious does still care about his son, Genghis (despite being an Enfante Terrible). This is shown in "Peace", where Voracious has a nightmare about him and his son being hunted down by the demonic Foxbusters, all the while he tries to flee from them with his son. This later drives him to try and declare a peace with the farm, although it does fail at the end by the hands of volpone.
    • Also in "Three Hens and a Baby", where Genghis accidentally ends up in the farm, Voracious thinks that the Foxbusters have kidnapped his son and proceeds to give them anything they want in exchange for his son.
  • Evil Sounds Deep: Rob Rackstraw provides Voracious with a deep, snarling voice befitting the bloodthirsty, tyrannical leader of a pack of villainous foxes.
  • Heel–Face Turn: A plot point in "Peace". After having a nightmare of being hunted down by the Foxbusters, Voracious tries to sort things out with the farm and declare a peace. However, this fails at the end, by the hands of Volpone, who is not willing to let the peace come.
  • Tyrant Takes the Helm: By contrast to Volpone, who was a cunning and resourceful leader who treated the Foxearth pack well, Voracious is Bad Boss who lords over the other foxes and blames/abuses them when his plans go wrong.

    Evita 
Voiced by: Joanna Lumley
  • Sadist: She's the most sadistic of the three hench-foxes. She once dangled a helpless mouse over Vlad's mouth while casually having a conversation about how she wants children.
  • Women Are Wiser: Out of the Terrible Trio. While Attila is also cunning, he's also rather hot-tempered. Evita is much more level-headed and patient and also resourceful.

    Attila 
Voiced by: Rob Rackstraw
  • Red Right Hand: He's missing his right eye. How he lost it is never explained.

    Todd 
Voiced by: Jimmy Hibbert
  • Butt-Monkey: He's generally the fox most likely to get the stuffing knocked out of him or suffer some misfortune, even at the hands of the other foxes.
  • Cloud Cuckoolander: Todd's attention wanders quite often and thus he needs Attila and Evita to keep focused on the task at hand.
  • Minion with an F in Evil: Tod's too stupid to be of any actual threat to the Foxbusters. In fact, he's usually a key component in fouling up the fox's plans. He seems to be more self-aware than most examples:
    Todd: Oh, well, at least I'm consistent - I always do the wrong thing!
  • Terrible Trio: Forms one with Attila and Evita, but fails to fulfil the "terrible" part due to his Cloud

    Genghis 
Voiced by: Jimmy Hibbert

    Volpone 
Voiced by: Jimmy Hibbert
  • My God, What Have I Done?: When he sees what his attempts to stop the peace treaty in "Peace" have led to, Volpone feels genuinely remorseful and shares a moment with Sims as they watch the renewed fighting.
  • Reasonable Authority Figure: Volpone, the original leader of the foxes, was a likeable and resourceful leader who treated his pack well, unlike his son and successor Voracious.
  • Simple, yet Awesome: In "One Paw in the Grave", Volpone's old and simple method to make a trap involving a stick propping up a crate with some grain underneath as bait turns out to be more successful than the more complicated and elaborate schemes Voracious and the other foxes prefer and ends up working against the Foxbusters. All this after being ridiculed by the other foxes and the method being looked down by Voracious as useless. For this reason, Volpone decides not to share his captives with the other foxes as he didn't feel they deserved it.
  • When I Was Your Age...: Volpone prefers old and simple methods over modern and complicated methods. When catching the Foxbusters with his simple method in "One Paw in the Grave" and being accompanied by Voracious' son, Genghis, Volpone tells him how he can tell about it to his own children in the future.

    Rotter 
Voiced by: Jimmy Hibbert
  • Affably Evil: While Rotter usually isn't up to no good and is either trying to catch eggs from the chickens, or helping the foxes in their plans, or then, using both the farm and the foxes in order to get his own goals by trickery, he is still pretty polite and soft-spoken.
  • Card-Carrying Villain: While definitely not as evil as the foxes, he has a tendency to steal eggs from the chicken as well as trick both the Foxbusters and the foxes to get his own goals and is quite proud doing it.
    Rotter: And so, we bid farewell Rotter the Otter, Prince of Thieves and Daring Double Agent.
  • Double Agent: In "The Trojan Chicken", he both pretends to help the foxes as well as help the chickens to trick them in exchange for eggs.
  • Rhyming Names: Rotter the otter
