I live in a very rural area with lots of foxes, coyotes, skunks, raccoons, etc. One old fox followed me home from my acreage one day and came in through the cat doors in search of an easy meal. That Winter she moved inside full-time and slept either on a blanket by the back door or behind the computer where it was toasty warm. A baby skunk named Susie, who had been abandoned by her mother and bullied by her siblings, also came to live indoors. Never once was there a problem. Susie slept with the kittens, the fox stayed close to home, probably because she was old and had had a tough life. I learned far more from the fox, skunk, and cats, than they ever learned from me. I learned that sentient beings come in all sorts of forms.

We had a vixen who was like this, back in the late 1990's. She would come round during the day and hang out with us. She was besotted with my late father and would go on walks with him, leading the way. One day, she left her cubs with us to look after while she took a few hours nap in a neighbour's garden.

Foxes are known to harbour a range of different parasites, both internally and externally, including various species of intestinal worms, flukes, lungworm, heartworm, tick, mite, flea, protozoan, virus, bacteria and fungi. Some of those of greatest concern, owing to them being zoonoses (i.e. can be transferred to humans), include Toxocara canis (dog roundworm), Echinococcus multilocularis (hyatid worm) and Trichinella spiralis (muscle worm)

I live in the country and there quite a few native whitetail deer in the area. I've managed to make friends with a big doe. Every evening she comes to greet me on the back deck. She will hang out for a while and watch whatever I am doing. She usually gets an apple or a carrot and a head scratch, visits for a while and rejoins the rest of the herd. This has been going on for about a year. I'm hoping she will bring her new fawn for a visit in the future.

​@@urrywest Ironically the more it depends on this man as a food source the less it will be inclined to hunt rodents. Also this fox is going to lose its fear of humans in general and start approaching them. That would be to its detriment. And finally is domestication really an ideal outcome for a wild animal? Yes by allying with us, it increases its chances of survival but it loses its freedom and ability to live without us. Foxes and wolves aren't in shelters waiting to be euthanized ^_^

Whitespot’s eyes reveal an unmistakable and real intelligence. Also, the video quality and lighting are spectacular. We can tell you are a professional, Steve. In addition to a “Warning-Video Surveillance” sign in your front yard could add a second: “Addendum for would be burglars- Job interview attire recommended. Also comb your hair and smile. Living room has best camera angles and lighting for improv.” Feel to translate my suggestion from American English to English English.-Mark (California)

This video made me smile. You two seem to have a wonderful relationship and it is so sweet how gently the fox takes the food from your hand. I loved how the fox mouthed your hand and gave you a lick.

I had a friend who trained an alligator like this. He had marvellous patience. He had to take baby steps, sitting on the edge of a river, one day at a time with a fish and put it closer and closer to himself over many months. Finally he told me he reached the day when it would take it from his hands. I don't know what happened because I lost touch with him after that. No one has seen him around for quite a while now.

Thanks for being nice to this wild fox. They don't live long in the wild, just 3-5 years. Some live for 10 years, but that is about it. They are very beautiful animals.

Gorgeous and looks so perfectly healthy (likely helped by the hand feeding of nutrients-rich foods so she never starves). It must be so cool to have wild foxes around.

So gentle when taking food from you... It really trusts you

We were sitting in the garden today (edge of countryside) a young fox walked right past us. I waved at it and then it lay down about 15 feet away facing us and was there for over half an hour just relaxing. It was a lovely moment.
