Ok so, biting and digging part is very similar to cat behaviour. They don't like to be touched sometimes so they bite , and when they do their stuff they don't want to be said NO, which they do get, but that still doesn't change the path of them doing their stuff. Wagging tail, sounds he produces, ear movement when his cuddle mode is on... dog features. Such a nicely designed creature.

Hi! I do absolutely LOVE your channel so much! I am going to give you some constructive criticism on what to do when little Djinn gets bitey or grumpy. I read an article about animals that stay in sort of a people-y environment/habitat and apparently when they bite they want to be left alone. I am by no means a professional on animals but I do read a lot of articles on them. Whether you want to take this advice/criticism is 100% your choice, but I just don't like to see animals bothered, and I an definitely not in anyway saying you do bother them, in fact I am saying the exact opposite, because I believe you take very good care of him, I just wanted to tell you so Djinn gets his way, and you get bitten less.

Several fox did get domesticated, altho domestication is a very vague term. i mean a cow is a domesticated animal, no way that makes a good (indoor) pet. You are sorta right tho people should not keep wild caught animals as pet.

For viewers who don't know much about owning fennecs, they need a large area dedicated to digging and enrichment (although any animal really needs enrichment) such as live food where appropriate, buried food, or food hidden in toys like kongs, and toys they can destroy. Fennec foxes are desert-dwelling, and as such, they would normally dig in the sand to search for food, including worms, grubs, and scorpions.

They can live in a group of max 10 foxes, but would need a lot of space in order not the kill each other. That's why, for example, in Fox Village in Japan the foxes are fighting day and night (too much foxes together). Also, male fennecs mostly live on their own. Djinn doesn't like other animals that much either. He likes to have the whole place and all the food for himself. Foxes hunt on their own and only for themselves and burry their food to save for later. They never share with the other group members. They act more like cats: solitary, sometimes living in small groups but fighting a lot if they don't like each other.

He appears to be desperate to find or create a dark hole to crawl into. Also I am wondering why the owner continued to pet the foxie when multiple times, it made clear it did not want to be touched or bothered, exhibiting biting and snarling. At the beginning, foxie also seemed panicked and confused; the walls seemed to intimidate him and he acted like he wanted to escape immediately. He also did not enter, but instead repeatedly attacked the entrance of his tunmel "fox hole", the very toy that would provide him the refuge and darkness that he seemed to be looking for. That bit concerned me. Unlike your Coffee Time Fenec Fox video, this video made me concerned that the foxie is a wild animal and should not be kept as a pet. I felt a generous bit of pity for it being enclosed.

Foxes are very different from dog in their behaviour. They indeed don't see petting as a reward. I think it resembles more something like cats licking each other. Even if the cats where just fighting, they lick each other to calm down again. Also, the line between trust and fear is very very thin. If you would yell to a fox the way you would to a dog, it will never come near to you again. Since foxes are solitary animals, they don't care about staying with you when you aren't kind to them. So we just gave him some time and kept on stroking him, and now Djinn never bites us :)
