Fuchs, because of health concerns, moved to Austria in 1996 and died at the age of 91 in Mödling, Austria. In his research, Fuchs conducted field studies in Central India. He focused particularly on the customs and beliefs of modern Indian tribes. Originally when he moved to India, he researched solely the social and cultural customs of modern-day central Indian tribes.
