Introduction
Have you heard about the story of fox and the crow where the fox tricks the crow to drop the food from tree? I’m sure you most probably did. Foxes are portrayed as cunning and deceitful creatures in many stories and fables. But is it really true or just a myth? The foxes are most probably assumed as such because of their sneaky ways of hunting for a prey. However, wouldn’t it be exciting to know more about these so call “cunning creatures”?
Did you know that foxes show a great deal of love, attention and care when raising their young? Let me recall an incident. It was May 2009. A baby fox was badly injured and was unable to move for he was caught in a snare for 2 weeks until he was finally rescued by the RSPCA. He survived miraculously because of the food his mother brought when he lay there trapped. Heart-warming, isn’t it?
