"Signpost ahead. You have entered The Twilight Zone." ;)

Had to read that one a few times...

Lmaoo

Know thinking about it WERE THE FRICK DID MY PIZZA ROLLS GO

Foxes are fun. Theres a wild one here. I would hand feed it beef jerky or granola bars. It would take it and dart off. But one night, i put whipped cream on a plate, and that was it. Instant tame. Petting, ear scratches, whatever. For as long as there was whipped cream on the plate. It knows the can now and will hop up on my leg like a dog begging for more.

@Hannah Rhodes lol

Kitsune…

​@@Volyrenwhipped cream is the way to domesticate me as well

I live in Croydon and have a huge garden and have a family of foxes who ain't bothered if I'm in the garden or not.. They know exactly what time dinner time is and are always waiting!! They not even bothered by my dog who's not really interested in them neither.. I leave toys for them to play with and they even get on the trampoline.. They just walk about in the middle of the day in Croydon and don't seem to be phased by humans..

This was in England. Didn't you notice the number plates?

A group of foxes is called a "skulk" btw!

Lucky you🦊‼️. I live in America 🇺🇲 and rarely see wild life. But one time we were on our way to my husband's brother's house 🏡 for Christmas 🎄when we passed a field. In it was a beautiful fox 🦊 who was hunting. It's Red fur was very visible against the white snow ❄️.

@@helenbrown2969 I can’t believe how many foxes there are in Croydon. From Australia and visiting my brother in South Norwood, we walked from one family members house to another late one night and I counted 12 over a distance of no more than 300 meters. They were the scrawniest most miserable looking foxes I have ever seen too!

But not always. Hitler loved animals. His only friend as a soldier in WW1 was a white fox terrier called Fuchsl. During WW2 he had a beloved pet German Shepherd called Blondi who would sleep by his side.

@@CharlesDickens111 Sad but true. Sometimes evil people are different with animals, or children--non-threatening creatures. I guess one could say, though, that those who are not kind to animals are universally awful.

Thanks!!!

cute animals i like this video

@kevin lawrence thanks

It's nice to see wild predators relaxed enough to play in your backyard? I can't tell if you're being ironic, extremely ignorant what foxes do to pets or just plain stupid... same with anyone who thumbs up your comment.

@@jcs6206 I am both ignorant and stupid 😄

❤️

@@jcs6206 chill dude. foxes in the UK don't attack pets, they live in the towns and countryside. They will run from humans, dogs and cats as they can't afford to get hurt. So don't be such a drama queen. 😂👑

How fortunate to be able to enjoy something as special as that.

Cute story. I hope so too.

awwww~ ! *that kit- 🦊 was flirting with you ♡ *nice story, my friend.

@@beastboy6799 yea. Sounded real chill. 🕶 nice!

That is just the nicest, sweetest thing ever! It's such a good feeling when a wild animal trusts you.

That's awesome. Thank you for sharing that.♥️👍🏻

The lady is a gem. I really love her video

Magical?? It's a fox not a unicorn .

@@vancouverviking4652 - BAH HUMBUG 😞

What am I missing? How are foxes misunderstood?

foxes are great, but keep cats away from them. I have had multiple (feral) cats and kittens eaten by foxes. It is generally not a good thing, when they start to come into backyards.

You were blessed by Mother Nature.

But they should be 6 feet apart. :-)

The raccoons that eat my dad's garbage have learned that if they don't make a mess, he won't put bungee cords on the garbage. So they just tip it over, make a slit in the garbage bag, and crawl in and take what they want. He doesn't care because all he has to do is put the garbage can back up. They're really smart lol

@@mrman_7052 Raccoons are so smart. Except when it comes to crossing roads when cars are coming; I can’t tell you how many raccoons I’ve seen dead on or beside roads. So sad. They can also be a kind of vicious: I knew someone who lived on a farm, and she said that raccoons got into the chicken enclosure at night and ripped the heads off a bunch of their chickens. Nasty. Still, I find them kind of fascinating.

@@gedison5551 they’re just Hungry and prefer not to eat the heads. It sucks but they have to eat too. I have the same issue with my chickens but they’re just tying to feed themselves. I found if I leave all our families food we don’t finish at dinner outside the of the pen they do t bother with the chickens usually. But like you said very smart animals.

@@Joe-gy4sd Yes, I know. Thanks for the kind reminder. And, it’s not like the factory farming and “processing” of animals for food that we humans do is any better. Possibly worse. (Nothing on you, because maybe you’re running a small family farm, or simply have a backyard chicken coop.) My friend said the raccoons at their farm didn’t eat most of the chickens they beheaded, which is part of what was shocking to her. Nevertheless, seems like you’ve found a great and humane solution. BTW, I watched a large raccoon, for about 30 minutes, washing its hands, drinking water, and I think eating bugs out of a small human made “pond” fed by fresh piped-in water, in a friend’s backyard last summer. Took some video. I enjoyed watching the fineness of its movements, and we seemed to agree not to bother one another.

This is just untrue. Nat Geo Wild can show this kind of footing, in better quality, and in the actual wild, not in someone's garden.

Lmao way to make a random video about foxes into a rant about Nat Geo.

@@demdem5794 Amazing the interpretations some commentators see as a rant...I was simply saying it’s beautiful. Let that be a rant... 😂😂😂

@@candya1040 your right but I think just felix was right about footage quality but he or she did go on a little bit of a rant 😊

@@justfelix9199 This is in the UK which has a huge number of urban foxes. Gardens are the foxes "wild".

Did you guys put out another rubber ducky?

and now I want oreos!

Haven't we all squabbled over that rubber duckie?

😂

Cunning too

the foxes

@@Nonyah123 yez

I agree.. ALL of the above❣️ We need more people like this in the world who actually *respects* animals and lets them be. *Live and Let Live* EVERYONE should follow that motto

@@merncat3384 Yeah, Let that taruntula that's chillin' outside pur bedroom doors stay there-

@@merncat3384 I do like that motto but unfortunately that isn't possible everywhere like in Australia where I live if I saw those two foxes in my back yard I would shoot them just because it's the responsible thing to do because foxes have caused irreversible damage to Australian wild life populations and will continue to do more damage if we don't try to control them.

A lot of people respect animals. There’s people who go out there and rescue and save abandoned and injured animals and take care of them and bring them back to health and set the animals free to be in their own natural environment. People have had pets for centuries and don’t put them in tight spaces or small cages. They love their pets like their own babies and let their pets play outdoors to get fresh air, they’re fed well and get veterinary help when their sick, also, it’s better than taking meds for depression or anxiety. And zoos have been around for a couple centuries..they take care of the animals 24/7, and will live a lot longer than in the wild and adults and kids get an education about the animal. It makes people happy. Everyone appreciates and respect animals. Who said that people don’t? It’s odd how some people see animal video’s similar to this one and need to say, “It’s about time someone appreciates animals”, or your comment about people respecting animals. If you actually notice and read about it or visit places that has animal sanctuaries or even the zoo, you’ll see that the employees and the animals are perfectly happy. There’s nothing wrong in having pets, they show love and appreciation back because they know they’re safe and loved. I don’t get how some people actually think animals aren’t appreciated or think it’s awful to have a pet. I rather save an animal than let it be abandoned or in danger for other wildlife’s prey. I’m so glad I rescued my first two cats that were found abandoned since they were kittens and my friends found another kitten left alone and I volunteer to take a couple, so they won’t be attacked by other stray dogs or cats or even by coyotes. So glad most of this world has a pet or five! Lol

There is a college a block away a forest also my mom was driving home she thinks she sees a dog walking through a busy intersection nope a fox walked right through and jumped the fence into the forest

"And look! She's still there"

lol Shiba Inus are are so cute

lucky you! they are cute af

sekkkkkkyaaaaaaaaaaa

I have a tan one named miki, also have a black one named yoshi. Miki is our little shiba fox, yoshi is a little shiba bear! Miki is 2 years old and yoshi is 1 year old yoshi is a boy, Miki is a girl

Me too. Such brats! Haha. An attitude like no other lol.

well said

Your absolutely right, I have a female fox who sleeps on my balcony(first floor flat) she's is beautiful, I don't feed her because I don't need to she is super healthy, in the summer I have the door open and she still sits there. It's like having a sprit animal just hanging with me. So very cool. I did get her a box and blanket for Xmas and last night she was curled up asleep inside. So very cute. 😊

@@rubytwoshoes1032 aww how lovely that you provided her with a bed & blanket. It’s so cold at this time of year & that must be so comforting for her. My garden is huge & I have a ton of holes down at the back as they dig their burrows & live underground. It’s so nice that she feels so safe around you. I feel that a lot of them love being around us humans, especially if you are calm & speak softly to them.

You must have kept them well fed them if they weren’t interested in your cat.

@@anti-ethniccleansing465 I’ve lived here for 23 years & there are lots of cats in the neighbourhood who visit my garden. My last 2 cats died of old age at 20 & 22. I have an 8 yr old now who goes out unsupervised every day & night too & they all co exist very well. She doesn’t run away when she sees them. Maybe as you say it’s because they are well fed, and maybe it’s genetics as it has been a few generations of the same family & they have become conditioned to being with cats but my experience with them has been without incident. A bout 3 years ago I gave them an old teddy as they love to play with stuff & they love it chasing around after the one that has it. The Teddy is always in the garden and to date is fully intact. Not torn apart with the stuffing ripped out of it, if the teddy was given to a dog I don’t quite think it would share the same fate. By the way I love dogs & had an English bull terrier who passed away some years ago. She was raised with the foxes & never chased them, or other cats, she just saw them as other dogs I think. One of my cats used to come on our walks when we used to go out as they were super attached. I do really think it’s conditioning as I had a hamster that only slept in her cage & was always out roaming around which is quite something as I had 2 cats at the same time. One cat basically ignored her whilst the other a male loved her & she would climb all over him. Friends were always shocked when they witnessed this. Ha ha. I think all animals can be taught that just because another is smaller it doesn’t make them prey & that they are all part of a pack. It does require patience & calmness though. Although as in any species you always have rogues. 😁

@@sonyg9018 I love that. :) I saw a sad video recently on a RU-vid channel named “A Chick Called Albert,” and a fox was getting in his yard and eating his pet ducks/chickens. It was awful. He did a great job though, as he humanely caged the fox to transport him to a different territory. He obviously wasn’t conditioned, and was hungry! (The fox, not the man lol 😂)

Lucky

It's called gloating

Whoever called animal control was just a karen trying to find the manager

@@hanabanana7041 Agreed - it was a shite thing to do... SMH

She is a wonderful person , she didn't just love and let the foxes stay and feel safe she also helped and trained the dog to like and get used to the foxes too . Amazing expression of love there !!

I agree a, 🙏❤️🙏

@The dodo not the place dude also no one cares and it’s probably a pyramid scheme.

And I heard you need to basically not have a sense of smell since fox pee stinks more than rotten eggs, moldy mold, barf, diarrhea, unhygienic piss- in a gamers room fool of them mixed in one. Yet I would rather smell a foxes pee than all above.

Find a local wildlife rescue to help you return your fox to the wild where it belongs. You are being selfish.

@@gothdogs6300 Thank you so very much, my friend. It's nice to know there's a kindred soul out there. God bless you, kind sir.

@@gothdogs6300 Thank you, young lady, but I'm certain you can tell, it's not unusual for me to apologize for my mistakes, but thank you for declaring us "friends. God bless you, young lady.

In fact, what you're doing is illegal in many states.

foxes are notorious cheaters when it comes to golf

@@Romanticoutlaw yes, his swing-style was very unconventional, and his choice of clubs was questionable as well.. he didn't make his drive past the ladies-tee, so he still owes me a drink at the club-house, but he took off before paying, so I don't think I would want to play a full round with that fox if the opportunity presented itself in future..

Thank you for accommodating him and letting him play rather than just shooing him away like many would have done x

​@@georgina-a I would never have done that, and had it been up to me, then I would have stayed much longer. I love animals, and they seem to like me (some of my neighbors cats spend their day at my house, as they seem to prefer it here). I've even been fortunate to have been free-diving with whale sharks in the wild. We (humanity) need to realize much more, that we're not the only ones and there's just something special about peaceful interactions and showing mutual respect to one another. :)

That story reminds me of a video I saw a while ago of a couple whose gold game was interrupted by a bobcat (I think?) that was going after their balls. They got so wrapped up playing with the cat that they nearly forgot they were playing golf. True animal lovers know the pure, raw joy that a playful animal can bring and don't mind stopping everything they're doing to join in.

@Brain Can bit cruel putting your mice out mate?

And what neighborhood pets do they eat??

@@anti-ethniccleansing465 - none. Foxes are not a threat to small dogs and cats. Rabbits, squirrels, rodents, but pets are not on the menu. Our indoor/outdoor cat never had a problem with them, and they don't with her. .

@@pawwalker3492 I saw a really sad video on the RU-vid channel called “A Chick Called Albert,“ where a fox was coming in and eating his pet chickens. :(

@@anti-ethniccleansing465 most people don't have pet chickens, in my area they are considered livestock anyways, but I would guess you'd have to put chickens into a coop or other enclosure at night, and probably should anyways for their own well being, and I imagine a heated space would be important when it's cold out. And other easy fox food pets like rabbits should also be kept inside imo, but that's a whole other issue. I'd recommend a channel like "Lennon the Bunny" for that kind of stuff. Besides chickens and such, dogs and cats are seen more as equals by foxes, and not prey. Foxes aren't the same threat to pets as coyotes or bob cats or anything like that. And I should know, I lived where bob cats chilled on the yard wall every morning. Also owls and hawks...they're way bigger threats to pets like cats or smaller dogs.

@@anti-ethniccleansing465 sure, that would be sad. No one here has pet chickens. I found "A Chick Called Albert" where the man's 5 ducklings were killed by a fox. Around here the only animals that would eat cats and small dogs are coyotes. It can be sad when a predator kills to eat, but that's what they do. We do, too. Thanks for the reply. A Chick Called Albert is an interesting site.

I had a nice encounter with a young fox "a little" SE of you. My kids got to pet it and she was playing with the cats and generally acting like the video. They come up to ogle our poultry but so far we haven't lost any this year. Maybe they appreciate having a safe space from the coyotes to raise their kits each time here on the farm. I even got to see a red fox walking across the snow this past Monday morning, a wonderful and rare scene in our part of the state.

@@KKIcons Nice!

Haha! I love this comment! And I'm with you. 😉 😍

LOL!!

Yes!!

@Froddobaggins WasmyMilkman Fantastic Mr. Fox. I've not watched the film, I used to read the Roald Dahl book many times back when I was a young child in the 70s.

@Froddobaggins WasmyMilkman Thanks for your recommendation.👍🏽 I hope you and your family have a very lovely Christmas and an even better New Year.

FOX hunting is still a (horrible, disgusting, malicious) thing in the UK. Must have been one of those individuals who kill animals for "FUN".🤬🤬

Maybe a farmer tired of losing hens?

I expected more from this video than bad filming of foxes from the window and "honored that they chose our garden". I mean, come on.

@@alxndr5810 that has nothing to do with this video

Bots

I will never understand how someone can think it's fun to watch a pack of hounds tear apart a live fox. You have to be a sociopath to think something like that is fun. Then I read a undercover story a few years ago about how the person who is in charge of raising and training the fox hounds will raise foxes and throw live young fox cubs in with the pack of hounds so the hounds get a taste for killing foxes. It's absolutely disgusting.

@@trinitylane2202 for real!!!! They will even try and beat you up for trying save the fox. Esp the men. They don't care if you're female or male. They still try to harm the rescuers. I have seen some horrible videos with people saving the foxes from these monsters. They are pure evil.

@@DavesRabbitHole Kits

@@DavesRabbitHole either's acceptable

@@DavesRabbitHole no it’s kits

The lady (human) is probably counting on it !

Yeah, kits, pups or cubs are all acceptable. Myself, I exclusively use the word kit though, because it differentiates baby foxes from other species. A pup can be anything from a young mouse to a young shark. A cub can be anything from a young wolf (I find this weird, since wolves are basically the OG dogs; they should have puppies, not cubs) to a young lion or bear (oh my!). But kit is less widely used, and its most common meaning (in this baby animal context at least) is that of a young fox. If you're talking about a pup, people will assume it's a dog (or if you're on a boat, they'll assume you are referring to a seal); a cub, people will assume to be a wolf or bear. But a kit...nobody uses that word in the normal course of life (except in it's non-animal meaning), so if you refer to "the kits" you've been watching grow up in your backyard, they won't assume anything at all. It's devoid of confusing connotations.

Yeah why didn’t she let Mazzy go out and play with the foxes?

@@ItsLuwee well that I can kind of see why.... But yea she was too cute...

@@rondameier8168 because the foxes might bite Mazzy?

@@rondameier8168 yes that’s a good point! And also wild animals might have rabies

Oml it does-

Not food but maybe water because if they put food then the foxes won’t hunt and will lose that instinct. So it wouldnt really benefit them in the long run.

Dont feed wild animals.

I put food and water out every night for the wild animals that visit my yard

@@justteleporting good point! But better they eat dog food than hunt pets

Do you put food and water out for them?

Are they dangerous around people or other dogs?

Those foxes look very happy and healthy.
