Some people have been sending me their own fox videos and I'd like to share them here. If you have a video (and I like it) I can share it. ukposts.info/have/v-deo/g3SVZoyqsYqQt2w.html ukposts.info/have/v-deo/f3eXhoWGhI-Zyp8.html ukposts.info/have/v-deo/folmYZumcISGo40.html

We have a wild fox that sleeps under a wooden house (on stilts), that we have in the garden. In the Summer when we're enjoying the sun she will often come and lie beside myself or my wife. Such a wonderful feeling to make a connection with nature

*What a privilege it is to live this close to nature. When a fox emerges from the woods, it's almost magical.*

I grew up on the east coast of Canada, and with foxes having literally almost no natural predators they are quite abundant, and mostly always friendly. To the point my male tomcat would literally go out and wrestle/play with the neighborhoods fox in the front yard, could even feed the fox hotdogs straight out of my hand. What a beautiful creature!

Foxes are friendly, especially when they know they can get food from you. We had a fox that ran around near the house, it got so tame, it would take food from our hands and it was so gentle doing it, not snatching like a dog would do. It would eat it and look at us as much as to say "is that all you got?" Once they know they can trust you, they have no fear and will sit beside you quite happily. Beautiful animals, their eyes are mesmerising, almost every colour you can imagine if you look closely.

Some foxes are obsessed with shoes. Where I live you can't put your shoes outside to air them as there's a fox who steals every shoe it can get. Sometimes you find a pile of shoes somewhere in the woods...

Foxes are god's greatest gift to man kind.

That she marks her territory with her back facing you, makes her very trustful toward you. What a cutie. Thanks for sharing the moment. 😊

Fun fact, the red fox is the most widespread little dude on the planet other than us. They do cities, mountains, jungles, forests etc etc. Crazy smart, adaptable, and of coarse adorable!!!

You'll have to take the hint. She's trying to tell you "I want food". One of the neighbours is probably feeding it.

What a beautiful fox. She wanted to play. I hope you get to see her again!❄️🦊

Such a beautiful floof!

Someones been feeding them. They're way too open around humans. Still extremely cute though. With how theyre jumping around it mightve played with someone's dog a bit.

She looks well fed.

❤️ those eyes. And such beautiful conifers and birches. Is this a young fox? Looks like he or she wants you to play!

What an amazing interaction. Most animals would leave immediately after they saw you. The others who stayed would leave after they realized you weren't going to give them food. The fox? She was curious and wanted to understand who you were!

What a mess that storm has created. But what a beautiful lovely fox.

What a cool encounter. Precious wild fur babies love em! Thank you for sharing.

As close to heaven on earth when nature chooses you like this.. so cute,I love it

Very mischievous yet playful, the blessings of a fox 😻🦊

This is when it pays to have a pack of hot dogs.

That was one bold, curious/happy fox. We had a den on our property for years and a few of them displayed similar behavior. None of them were rabid...mischievous yes.

At my last house there was a red fox that would randomly run through my yard and down my driveway. I only saw it a couple times but was thrilled when I did. In the middle of the city too.

What a Beautiful home you have. I love that fox. 🙏🏻✌🏻

The Fox's definately melt my heart. Their such a georgous animal. Love them soo much!

Thank you for sharing this with us. Brought a smile to my face ☺

Cute Fox. Too bad this guy didn't feed him when he showed up! He could have bonded with that Fox for life!

I recently saw a UKposts video of a fox raptly listening to a man playing his banjo. The fox strolled off when he quit playing.

What an awesome experience!

Amazing -- this fox could be tamed with some food treats.

She's adorable! Try getting ground level with her, it's less intimidating for her.

Alternate title: Fox domesticating a human for easy access for food and shelter.

It’s awesome to see how quick a fox can dart from one direction to another so quickly. Definitely useful for hunting.

Funny fox 😉🤗👍🏼! Thanks for sharing.

This area looks so beautiful to live in, despite it being VERY cold and having trees being risky during storms

I like people being nice there is some nice people out there

This makes me happy.

this its what i want in my backyard i love foxes

Pause at 1:52. That's a cute fox.

After watching several videos on my recommended about rabies infected animals.....i think im now traumatized man

these animals are wonderful, i've encountered one and i gave it a sausage and the fox loved it so i became close to the fox and pet him sometimes and i have a plan of raising him soon, hopefully it works out i've been studying alot about foxes and i think i have what it takes to raise one

Coyote near local landfill jumped around the same way here in Phoenix, Arizona. Kept her distance. So did I.

I love Fox's & Wolves! Too bad he didn't offer that cute Fox some food! He would have a friend for life!

I had a pet fox in central mountains of Idaho named Blondie who was always on time for dinner of chicken hearts that I bought in town & served in a dog bowl on the porch 🤗

I love being able to get close to nature like this. You can tell in that first clip that he was cautious and nervous, but at the same time he wanted to play and interact with you. I take it as a personal victory when wild animals can fight past their fear and see me as a friend/ally.

There's a reason that fox are known for being cunning/crafty critters. They're remarkably intelligent, and very adept problem-solvers. It's one of the reasons we have the saying of "finding a fox in the hen-house", because despite numerous attempts to keep them out, foxes will still find a way to get in and get at the hens. They are also incredibly quick, with lightning-fast reflexes. Makes most other animals look like they're standing still. It's still advised not to feed or try and pet them, as they are wild. Anytime a wild animal associates humans with food, the result is almost invariably disastrous, and either the human or the animal can get hurt because of it.

I follow a woman that rescues foxes that have been injured or taken in as pets when they shouldn't have. She gives them raw eggs once in awhile (not sure how often they should get one) she says there's something in it that's good for their dietary health.

I think she wants you to come. She pulls at your lace, she pulls at your shoe. A typical way of dog-like animals to indicate that you have to come along.

Beautiful fox! Beautiful area...I want to live there as well!!! 😉

They behave in a physical manner like a dog, but they are curious like a cat.... lol

Our local foxes are like this, usually just after mum has kicked them out. They want to play, wander into the shed and are stood behind you. They've even wandered into homes if the door is open. No side to them, full of fun, they often pinch children's soft toys too and leave them on doorsteps etc.

He marked his teritory. Maybe he will be back

In some ways I find it very surprising that we didn't domesticate our dogs from foxes, rather than wolves... But in other ways, it makes perfect sense 😂

I love his demeanor, when he sprints twords you at 0:08 and jukes out of the way! His curiosity is also fascinating! What an awesome experience!

Forget about adopting a fox. I'll tame a pack of these friendly creatures and keep them around as protection animals. They're the perfect asset for humanity.

🦊 "Is he edible?" 01:21 🦊 "No, not edible. Looks edible, though..." 01:59 🦊 "It tastes horrible. Maybe the other side..." 04:30 🦊 "Nah, definitely not edible."

What a cutie! I love how foxes don’t really get many natural predators in some places, making them playful and friendly

Zoomies! After all, it's forest doggo

I still think the best description i've heard of a fox being that a fox is cat software running on dog hardware.

Yeah, she has been exposed to some pretty nice people. Foxes can be tamed, but it takes a lot of work.

I love him. I sad that feeding foxes is illegal where i live, and how foxes who act too friendly get shot. It genuinely makes me cry, since befriending a fox has always been one of my childhood dreams.

Stunning! How wonderful. I have two foxes come to see me every evening . So beautiful 💖 Oh had to add this to this comment from 8 weeks ago. We have cub! They bought Thier baby to show us ..how special! Feel very honoured! 💗💕

One day you're you're attacked by a wolf and that little fox will come in on a futuristic looking jet and save you, but the wolf will have his own space jet and there would be an epic battle in the sky...... Plus learning about foxes has explained so much about Tails.

Thank you for this good mood video

What a lovely animal! So carefree and playful the way he danced around you!

Must of been one hell of a storm to knock down and uproot all those trees.

I love foxes. Beautiful, and very intelligent animals. I don't know how anyone can hunt them. Yeah yeah, you have chickens or ducks. Learn to lock them up at night. I have chickens and have never had a fox problem.

A raccoon tried taking off my moms shoe once. Just walked over and wrapped his paws around it and tugged.

this is amazing!!!

What an adorable little floof 😍

0:18 i love how that fox like "cant touch dis"

No word of a lie, i was smoking once behind my home , has a baseball field in the woods - and i was sitting on the benches And, what seemed like a dog at first walked up to me..Concerned it was someones dog, wanting to help- I calleed it over.. and as he approached, I realized... it's a fox or coyote. (common in my area) But , he kept approaching , not hyper active or skiddish at all... I was astonished and curious myself , so I let it continue..(he was in the baseball field, i was just at the fence near the batter's area across the fence.. sittting in the stands. front row - The fox decided to hang out, literally - he came to my feet from across the fence, just stared at each other with a calm happy greet -and laid down against the fence leaning on my feet... We both just kinda looked at each other and spoke with our eyes.. The fox simply wanted company... And , as my joint was running down to my last few puffs, - Still pinching myself if this is real... Got up , cuz i had things to do - and he did the same , slowly , together... We both locked eyes again as a "farewell" and mutually walked away slowly looking back at each other as we walked opposite directions.. The fact this completely wild fox/coyote, out of no where from across a baseball field to come and not only check me out, but was comfortable and not only willing but chose to come, and lay down at my feet as if he was one of my dogs... Just goes to show they have a need for love and compassion/empathy in them. I was having a rough day that day and I still can't believe I had a fox at my feet for 10-15minutes just lounging. I wish I had my phone... He was just there, chilling. Happy .. a mutual respect between us despite never meeting - Yes we had a fence between us.. but that didnt stop him from leaning against it , and being as close as he possibly can without feeling endangered and spent that much time and received nothing (I didnt feed him ever or anything...) I smoked my joint and when it was done, we parted ways as if he was lonely, and I know I was - and we just kept each other company for that time being.. his eyes said it all. Like a "Thanks for hanging" and was so calm SO MUCH LIKE A DOG , but it 100% was a Red fox... I never seen anything or experienced anything quite like this with Fox's . I can't explain the level of mutual understanding we had , despite not a word said - i just kinda accepted him as he accepted me as company. I remember just looking around and we both were, - just watching the scenery. . . together. I never looked at animals or fox's especially ever since the same way- , this fox by the way if he wanted to, could of came to hurt me. The walk around the fence was maybe 10ft.. but instead he laid at the floor like a dog but the fence kept us "apart" enough to feel safe and no worries at all. (for him/her) Enough for both of us to feel safe.. He was kinda like "Hmm" for a minute or two, and then decided - "He seems nice, I guess ill watch the stars with him" . So he did.. just slowly/calmly walked up and sat, lookin at me, and I just remember saying - "Dont worry lil guy, hang out if ya want" and he instantly put his butt/back on the fence to me and laid down.. No fear. Actually i'd argue he was at peace much like me in that moment.... I dont know what it is, but I believe humans ego really let us think were so much smarter and lost touch with nature, and i think all this human "progression" has made us lose touch with nature and therefore this clearly cant be a first time if it happened to me in 2012ish. Imagine how many people had this same experience.. but less and less since industrialization... Maybe we lost touch with these furry friends before ... Because this isnt the first time ive seen Fox's/Coyote's be very curious, and ive hand fed raccoons several times ect.. I know its not "right" but whos to say that moment I was Right or Wrong.

Foxes : An ideal synthesis between Cat and Dog - and what does he ? He is marking his territory - what a sweet "beast" ! Love them

Oh man, you're so lucky! I would love to have a little fox friend!

Man, now I want a fox. There are many around here, but they are nocturnal.

Red curiosity with a tail.

Fox: If I'm cute and friendly, they'll feed me.

I’m back 4 months later to say something I wish I said 4 months ago. Animals are just so precious.

poor little floof is hungry,give her some blueberries,pumpkin or eggs to eat

Animal's are so much more predictable and likeable. I trust them more than I do most people! Watching them is like a very relaxing experience.

This is the reason why we need love foxes

What a beautiful little fox. And thank you for being so nice. To this cute little fox. Thumbs up sir.👍🤗💖

What a wonderful experience for you -- one that few humans are lucky enough to have! Beautiful animal. I'd imagine that fox has lived close to you and other people for quite some time; it wasn't especially shy and even wanted to play. Great video!

Modern Humans: "OMG It's so cute! I want one as a pet!" Ancient Humans: "OMG it's so cute! I want one as a pet!" And thus were dogs made.

0:19 Filming guy: oohh how cute, she wants to play Fox: *trying to find an opening to execute the combo*

Thank you for sharing your experience . How lucky you are to have made friends with such a beautiful creature. Majestic , playful and elusive.

She probably either wants treats or to play.

I love fox so much ❤❤❤❤💕💕💕💕💕

Fox: you can't see me. I'm just an orange blur...

Such a beautiful and healthy looking fox. 🧡🧡🧡

Wow this was so special, thank you for sharing, such a beautiful fox. :D

"hooman, your shoelaces are off. here lemme get that for ya. whoops, accidentally pulled it. um, don't get mad aye?"

I've never seen a fox. A quick web search just now confirmed, Florida is not part of their range. But, they seem so neat! Kinda like a frisky cat-dog cross.

Aw, so cute) Though I was hoping for some pats

I untied your shoes the most devious of plans!

Such a savage animal, him and his little sockies, soft poofy floof, and a serious case of the zoomies, so cuteeeee hehehe

That is a very healthy, very well-adjusted fox. Because it's cold outside, he's keeping active. He's not fearful of the human; he's hoping for "chase-play," where you run after the fox and make him exert energy. That's why he's tugging at the shoestring... he wants you to chase.

Back when I lived in Kodiak, Alaska, we had a local fox in our neighborhood everyone called Limp or Limpy because of his well...limp. He was super friendly and would play with you just like this. I would throw pinecones for him and he'd chase and pounce on them.

Funny how she marks her territory there, like "That's my human."

I love fox! This one’s gorgeous
