  • Der Fox River ist ein Fluss in Zentral- und Ost-Wisconsin in den USA. Er fließt von Süden nach Norden durch zahlreiche Städte wie Neenah, Menasha, Appleton, Little Chute, Kimberly Combined Locks und Kaukauna. Geografisch unterteilt man den Fluss in einen oberen Teil, der sich von Zentral-Wisconsin bis in den Lake Winnebago erstreckt, und einen unteren Teil, der den Lake Winnebago mit der Green Bay (Michigansee) verbindet. Gemeinsam haben die beiden Teile eine Länge von 322 Kilometer (200 Meilen). (de)
  • The Fox River is a river in eastern Wisconsin in the Great Lakes region of the United States. It is the principal tributary of the Bay of Green Bay, and via the Bay, the largest tributary of Lake Michigan. The well-known city of Green Bay, one of the first European settlements in North America, is on the river at its mouth on lower Green Bay. Hydrographers divide the Fox into two distinct sections, the Upper Fox River, flowing from its headwaters in south-central Wisconsin northeasterly into Lake Winnebago, and the Lower Fox River, flowing from Lake Winnebago northeasterly to lower Green Bay. Together, the two sections give the Fox River a length of 182 miles (293 km). Counting the distance through Lake Winnebago gives a total of 200 miles (322 km). The Fox River (Green Bay tributary) should not be confused with the Fox River (Illinois River tributary) which also flows through Wisconsin having its origin starting at a point approximately 10 miles northwest of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, and flowing through the cities of Waukesha, Mukwonago and Burlington, before flowing out of Wisconsin into Illinois. The Fox River (Illinois tributary) is the bigger of the two rivers flowing from southeast Wisconsin and terminating in Ottawa, Illinois where it joins the Illinois River, for an estimated journey of 202-mile-long (325 km). The river's name is the English translation of the French name for the Meskwaki people in the 17th century. The river was part of the famous 1673–74 expedition of Jolliet and Marquette, in which they went on to become the first Europeans to traverse the upper Mississippi River. A particular set of cities on the lower Fox River identify themselves as the "Fox Cities". (en)
  • La Fox (anciennement rivière aux Renards) est une rivière du Wisconsin aux États-Unis. Elle se jette dans la baie de Green Bay, une baie situé sur la rive occidentale du Lac Michigan à proximité de la ville de Green Bay. Les géographes divisent la Fox en deux sections distinctes, la Haute Fox qui coule du centre du Wisconsin et se jette dans le Lac Winnebago, et la Basse Fox qui coule depuis le Lac Winnebago vers Green Bay. Ensemble ces deux sections représentent un cours de 322 km. (fr)
