little baby foxes!!!

Today we had 4 little baby foxes come into our shelter that our AC officers had traped. They're SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO adorable!!! Their feet have the most adorable jet black little "socks" on them and their tails are sooooooooooooooooooooo fluffy!!!! They will only be at our shelter for a day or so as a very kind gentleman who lives out in the middle of nowhere kindly said we could release them on his property (he has several hundred acres and it's out near the forest so it's just perfect! he has had wildlife experience for years too ) I'm soo excited they are going to be released into a safe/fox-friendly environment where they can live out their lives and be happy! What great news! I wish i had pictures -they are just too cute for words! And what is really adorable is hearing them bark They bark just like little doggies Hehe i just had to share the cuteness with ya'll - i love little baby foxes!

Awwww, I love foxes, they're so adorable! I wish they made good pets - I would have one in a heartbeat! Maybe if I can find a well-behaved pomeranian some day, that will have to do I'm glad you found a nice man to let them be wild though.

You should find a way to sneak pictures! I think we all need a fox fix!

And why don't you have pictures, hmm? How dare you taunt us with these adorable descriptions and not post pictures? AUGH!

sorry, i don't have any pictures- i was at work they are sooo cute though!!! they're little too - just babies (but old enough to be independant). i had never heard a fox bark until today- it's adorable!!!!!! the guy who's taking them is just wonderful! he has a ton of experience with wildlife- and will let them just live off the land and be free. he'll make sure nobody messes with them and that they are safe....so that's great! if we do get any orphaned wolf pups in our shelter though- i get to foster them (I have a 12 year old wolf mix) so i'm excited. Hehe but hopefully that won't need to happen! We have SOOOOOOO much wildlife around here...Memphis is city- but once you get out a little bit down the road and into the surrounding cities (i live and work in Bartlett,TN) there is TONS of forest/woods and wildlife everywhere. Deer, opossum, ducks, raccoons, wolves, foxes...you name it- we get it all....so our whole shelter is really trying to adapt so we can take care of them and release them into the wild if we're able to

Awwww! I wish that I could see them. I've seen a couple of foxes in the ever shrinking woods around here but it's been quite a few years. I'm glad that they are going someplace safe to grow and live.

Did you say wolves? I love wolves, one of my favorite animals.

Awww Hope- you should go to one of your local wildlife rescues or nature centers- they're just darling!!!! I LOVE their little legs- their jet black "stockings" and their tails are sooooooo fluffy! It's just too adorable! I had never heard one bark before today- it was sooo cute!!! I was standing outside with the other AC officer moving them from the cage to the carriers (to transport them) and the smallest one tried to kiss my gloves and barked at me I just wanted to hug it! It was sooo darling- but you don't hug a wild animal like that though

I had a pair of foxes living in my garden in London and they had a litter every year. I used to love seeing the babies playing in the garden, especially in the moonlight, but they made a terrible mess, and believe me, you do not want to smell a garden that has six foxes living in it. They tore up all my favourite plants and made paths to chase each other through the shrubbery. And they took the fish from the pond and ate the daffodil bulbs. So I am afraid I am not a fan, not that I would want any of them to be hurt, and in the right place, they are fine.

I love foxes wish you could of got pics of them!
