Finnegan fox and his toys. He usually is outside in the large yards the foxes have at the rescue center. @ladypeartree @JohnD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cute? Yes very cute, but I sure would not want any "pet" that gets territorial and is willing to bite at me. People are interesting creatures though.

No idea why he got a little territorial inside the house. Finnegan is usually outside in the large yards and he is fine with the gal. Her favorite fox. He has toys, etc, outside as well.

Odd what humans do and tolerate. Seeing videos of London streets being overrun with foxes, as example, makes me think people are a just a tad nutty. Looks like the making of a future epidemic of illnesses to me; but cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what about fox rescue centers? Did you check to see if they are allowed in more States? The rescue centers are only helping the foxes that were found in desperate situations....owners no longer wanting them, fur farms. If people used their common sense, many of the world's problems would be reduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And all sorts of well meaning people with tender hearts. BUT is rescue really part of the way of life as intended? Or do individual creatures and whole species come to an end as part of the way things are intended to go in this world? Do we not become little gods, that have taken over and away from God, when humans capture critters and put them into critter farms and pens and swim tanks rather than letting what is to me more natural take it's due course? ??? Now take in mind though it is now heavily populated where I am that I do still live among the rattle snakes, the copperheads, the coral snakes, as well as the common king snake and black racer that all do eat each other. Plus I do have to consider whether to let my rat terrier run the yard or whether the red hawk may be circling above or a coyote may be lurking about. And yes still a few gators in the neighborhood. So I may have a different way of thinking about capturing ( rescue) of the weaker or lame of the critters that are wild among us. "Rescuing" the wild ones whether cute or not seems to me an errant way of going about. Survival of the fittest has it's place, as it culls out frailty and disease.
