My grandfather rescued an injured fox, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula in the 1970s. It took to him, lived with him, and rode in his pickup truck, looking out the back window all the time. After it was healed it took off. Then months later SHE came back with her kits, just to show them to my grandfather. He pet them and played with them for a few hours on his front porch, and then she left with her babies, never to be seen again. She just wanted him to meet her family. She considered him a friend. He's passed away now but that story lives on.

I love that the mom comes back one last time, like “let me make sure I didn’t miss one”

Even checks the box to make sure she’s got them all! What a mum!👍♥️

I love how she kept checking to see if she left anyone behind. That's how you know you got too many babies lol

She thinks the box is going to close and trap her inside, she's testing the box to see if it's a trap, she's smart.🦊

Humans: we must handle babies with utmost care The fox: **y e e t** we gotta gOOOO

The fact that she was really making sure she grabbed all her pups just was so special to me!

Foxes are such a beautiful animal. Thank you so much for saving this precious little family ❤

I had a family of nine foxes living under my summer house in Dulwich (south east London) - I found a female cub in the bushes, very young.... She stayed in the garden for years, she recognised my voice (and probably smell) and would come when I called her.... She would wait patiently at the back door every morning to be fed (she really liked ham and her favourite was prawn crackers which were a very rare treat!) and if I didn't appear quickly enough she would jump up and rattle the door handle..... She would bring her cubs to show me every spring for about five years.... There was also a very large, quite majestic looking male fox, clearly the 'daddy' - he wasn't aggressive but I always knew to keep my distance.... One day he appeared with the end of his tail hanging off, it was obviously painful and infected - I crushed some antibiotics into a jam sandwich over the course of a few days and the damaged end fell off, with the infection cleared.... He then would wait in the garden to be fed with the others.... Six months later, he appeared again with one eye missing and a very infected socket - again antibiotics in a jam sandwich and a week later he was as good as new - I named him Cyclops and he became very much a part of my fox family and lived for another seven years.....

"Are those my kids?" **Sniff sniff** "Those ARE my kids!" **Starts moonwalking**

Love this - also because the owner obviously had a VERY BIG HEART for these baby foxes to let the rescue team just saw all of his patio into pieces in order to save these little ones.

You can see her thinking and quadruple checking the box at the end so considerate the people and the mother

For those asking, the reason why she digs is because she wants to mix her footprints with sand and avoid being tracked considering that someone previously found her nest. Also they are super smart at looking for traps etc. They learned that from their ancestors.

The babies were so quiet. Most baby animals are screaming like they’re being tortured. These guys were so chill!

I love how gentle she Yeeted them out of the box 📦 onto the ground ...I laughed a little .😅

I like how she makes sure she didn’t leave any behind.

I love how she makes noise to see if there is an animal trying to set her up. She’s making sure the coast is clear and being extra cautious.

I love the way she just yeets them out of the box and is like "WE GOTTTA GOOOO"

I doubt she stumbles across them😂 she has seen every single moment youve spent there and knows exactly where her babies are. Intelligent creatures...she fully inspects the box, can i dig under it, is it a trap...her motherly instinct overcomes her fear. She is braver every time. Wish we had more human parents like this. Great video👏🏽

3:41 The way those babies are just cuddled in her arms. ❤

She came back for every one of them and looks like she came back one extra time to make sure she has them all. She's a great mommy!

I love watching the gears turning in her head as she figured out how to get them out of the box, you can see how she’s trying everything while being as cautious as possible. Such an expressive creature

She dug the leaves and twigs away because they were producing noise, and could give her away while she saves her babies. I love her dedication. There’s a reason they say ‘clever like a fox’.

A mom who cares for her babies. God bless her.

She was so scared, poor girl... I'm glad all went well! Cheers guys!

I love that she comes back to double check if she got them all!

I'm baffled as to why those pups were so docile at the beginning. Baby kittens younger than that would like to tear your hand off. Very cool vid. Thank you for helping. 👍

What a couple of beautiful people as well. There's nothing more endearing than someone who cares so much for animals ❤

I love how she remembers to come back for every single one, then one more time just to make sure she doesnt missing one. Lovely.

Aware of all kind of tricks, traps, and hardship, the momy fox never abandoned her cubs. She is clever, meticulous, and determined to "rescue" all her babies. A great lesson for human parents.

How incredibly calm those baby fox were while that woman was holding them.

*I absolutely adore how the mom returns one last time, as if she's saying, 'Let me double-check and make sure I didn't overlook any.*

She's definitely a better mom than a lot of human parents..

These folks know what is important. They don't have to think twice about ripping up their porch. Wonderful. Kudos and blessings to you. Human beings.!

Animals that live in the wild are so amazing how they survive that mother is awesome.

That’s so sad. What a great Momma. As a homeowner I don’t know that I could have kicked her out . Especially during winter. As the babies grew in a few months, I imagine she would have moved on at that point.

Bless her Heart. She’s a great mom.

I have so much sympathy for wild animals living in urban areas. Thanks for helping her!

Wow super powerful, my favorite part is when she double check multiple times making sure she didn’t see anymore love it!!

I was CRACKING UP starting at 7:40, watching the fox digging in fast motion!! 😂😂 Remind me of watching old episodes of Benny Hill....🤣🤣

Love how she kept looking in empty box to make sure all babies are out. Can't get enough of those cutie babies. 😁👍

I love how after collecting them all she checks the empty box THREE times just in case, great Mama to those cubs 🐾

Need more humans like this ❤

Thank you for saving such precious animals.

She’s a great mom. Didn’t leave one behind! A litter of 7, that’s amazing!

Mama fox was not playing around. She got all her kids back! True legend.

awhh... this is fantastic. The love of a momma to her babies is amazing. Beautiful animals.

Absolutely adorable!! Thank you for the opportunity to see the babies. 🦊🦊🦊💕💕💕

I love the fact that she is such a good mama!! She came back even after she grabbed the last one to look around and make sure she didn't leave any of her babies behind!!! 💜 I love wildlife!!!

There is nothing in this world like a mother’s love. ❤️

Thank you so much for ensuring the babies are safe for mum fox to pick. Wow didn’t realize how smart they are. She even had to check and double check to make sure that she didn’t miss any of the babies. I hope for the kids safety at the new location . God bless them all!

That was AWESOME! Busy mom for sure!🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊

You can feel her panic and anxiety...imagine being in her position.

It’s so amazing how she came back for every single baby then after just to make sure she had em all I hope they grew up to be healthy foxes

Bless that mom, she is willing to defy the smells of humans and the sounds to get to her babies.

Thank you for putting these beautiful little creatures in a safe location for the mother fox to collect them. This was beautiful to watch, those babies are cute and the mother fox is a very beautiful creature as well.

Foxes are so smart. And that mother was so scared, you could see her hind legs literally shaking the first time.

I love how she grabs them out of the box like she’s kidnapping them 😂

You people are absolutely wonderful.!!! Thank you. AND what a wonderful fox mama .... she made 100% sure she picked up ALL her babies.

Why can’t this ever happen to me?! 😂 The little Fox 🦊 is sooooo sweet ❤❤❤

Man, those pups are tough, the way the mom hurriedly flings them out of the box.

Momma was so scared but so determined.. I felt bad for her..

This fox has better mother skills than most human ladies in 2023 😭🤣

I thought she only had four babies! Wow! Good mother fox!❤😊

So smart. She's clearly nervous about the lid. Tried to dig under

God bless anyone and everyone who rescues animals. True heroes help the ones who CAN'T pay them back. 🦊🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺

foxes are such awesome animals. so majestic and beautiful

Those poor fox kits really got bumped when she pulled them out! But they sure are hardy! She was so thorough in coming back to double-check to make sure not one was left behind, ha, ha!

Her behavior was absolutely fascinating. The clawing at the dirt, the extreme wariness not to just reach over and grab the kits. Lovely and clever

She was so stressed. I was stressed for her. Like you can do it! Come on!!🙏

You are a great mommy, foxy! ❤

I wonder if one was missing? She was pretty adamant about looking around and with her actions, like one was missing :( Pretty little Momma. What wonderful people helping her, especially having to deconstruct their stairs! I hope they are blessed humans!

She went out to get some milk and came back to her house being foreclosed 😨

This is my favorite animal of all time!! I love how she grabs them, throws them to the ground and off she goes!!!! Great momma

Well done, saving fox wildlife in such a safe manner. Thank you for helping her get her babies.

The intelligence in her eyes. She looks directly at the camera numerous times and it just blew my mind. We have them in my neighborhood and my favorite time of year is when they have the babies and they make such cute noises. We have a natural wood and they stay in there most the time but every once in a while we get to see them, not that young though. Bless you for keeping them safe & letting them go. I am very lucky to live with so much wildlife around me and I’d miss them all, the osprey, the fox, the snakes and even skinks, skunks and raccoons. They bring me joy when they come to visit and I watch them from the window.

You did great in freeing them and letting their Mum take them. Congratulations ❤❤❤

The awe of the ‘re-homers’ is touching.

Watching mom fox stress out and almost dig another den before she got up enough fortitude to reach her head in and grab her pups was something I’ve never seen before. Amazing video. Well done

The fox was nervous because of all the construction sounds. Sounds that would make any wild animal nervous. Thats why she was acting strange.

021223/1452h PST 🇺🇸 Dear People, thank you for being so companionate, kind and considerate. The world needs people like you. Bless you both. 73s..

Thank you for being so kind to both mum and babies, so good to see people that really care about animals!!!!

That fox has definitely seen a few traps in her day...

Respect to this company who got them out and respected that porch. Not everyone would do it so delicately and make it so the porch could be put together again so easily.

Thank you. Most people will call animal control, and mama wouldn't be able to see her babies again. ❤

She launches each one out like they’re in trouble ……. “I told you not to strangers, just wait till I tell your dad” 🤣🤣

I love how she really looked around to make sure she didn't leave any behind. Great job removing and reuniting mom her babies.

i love how she vaults each baby out with such force. and every single time the baby is like AAAAH and the moms like well another tuesday for me

So you do home construction too. Hard and very rewarding work. Those were some ridiculously cute babies. Mom was so brave and concerned.

It is so cute. I am happy for the fox they can have a happy life now. 😊

So precious making sure she didn't leave one behind...

She looked so worried that she missed one, so sweet! Only took her 5 minutes to come and get them. I never saw a baby fox, so cute, almost like kittens!

What a charming and emotional story of a mother worried about lost babies foxes. Thank you

Thank you for saving them ❤

Frantic momma fox: "Are there any left? Have I forgotten anyone? Let me check. Let me double-check."

It’s crazy how she is aware of all kind of tricks and traps. The reason why she’s digging up the earth is so you can’t hear her when she walk close to the box. The dry leaves make a lot of noise and BTW they’re called a Sly Fox for a reason.

You see the fox looking at the lid of the box with great interest. She’s like ‘Hang On A Minute’ 🧐. Very intelligent creatures

They are just too cute, you can see how someone might mistake them for puppies. What a good Mom, I was cheering her on, she broke my heart desperately trying to dig her way into the box. Thank you for your work, it must be the best job in Canada.

I'm mostly amazed at how she very clearly removes all the leaves and other noise producing things from around the box to allow her to grab the babies unnoticed. That's incredibly smart.

I love how she straight snatches them, bonking their cute little heads everytime. Nature isn't gentle but thank God those little guys are built for that :)
