Fox cub

Steady on Girl….... do you need a cold showe now??? hehehehe

Thanks again for a wonderful comment

Many thanks for your commments

Thank you Rosalie, your comments are much appreciated

thank you Krys, he was adorable and not that afraid of us.

Well Pete you are both right in a way. This a Fox cub, not yet fully mature but already looking more like a fox with its reddish coating, as it has sheds its dark brown fur when their are “Kits”.

When they are Kits they usually reaming in the Den or also known as the earth. During that time daddy Fox runs round and will gather the food for the vixen and the kits. He will continue to give up his food even when they are much older. During that period you see the dog fox often quite thinner than he normally would be.

Foxes are not pests as many assume, nor do they kill for killing sakes as others will have you believe. In fact we should welcome city foxes, as they eat rats, mice, insects, bugs, sometime if hey are lucky squirrel, fruits, nuts and seeds, as well as the contents of your dustbin for easy picking.

He is not a senseless killer, but will store his food in a larder under ground, for leaner times.

It is quite common that Foxes are more prevalent in cities, as their is more of an abundant food source then in the country, as we have over farmed and poisoned our country side, that many of the specie which the fox lived on in abundance has substantially declined.

Thank you very much for the kind comment. I wish I could live deep in the country or preferably in woodland.

I am glad you liked it and thanks for visiting

thank youu, he is a cutie

Thank you so much, I am delighted to received this award.

Thank you for your kind comment

Thank you for your lovely comment. yes it looks so easy. but it took hours of patience to get this shot

Thank you tanya, but next to your portfolio, it pales into insignificance

Many Thanks for looking through my portfolio and like this image.

All the best

Marianna, they are so cute, sadly in the UK the Fox is not very appreciate it. They either case it away, kill it or chase it with hounds who then tear it apart (they call it Sport here—ugh)

Yes it is not allowed, but they are still doing it, as no one gets arrested or prosecuted in court for illegal use of hounds against foxes. Why???? Because most of the people involve din the Hunt are very influential, e.g. lawyers, Magistrates, Judges, Doctors, politicians, Lords, ladies, Princess etc.

So it is a fools law, which was passed in jest and not honoured in earnest.

Thank you so much, you have no idea how wonderful your appreciation makes me feel. Many thanks

Thank you for your wonderful comment and I agree those little foxes have so much expression

Ruth, I really agree with you he was totally adorable. I jsut love to see the kits playing, they are so alive and full of curiosity..
