  • The 5th video in the "Friendly wild urban fox comes to be fed" series.
    My friendly local vixen, Mrs Fox, pays a visit and gets filmed while feeding on sausages and resting in the garden. Filmed in Birmingham UK on Panasonic Lumix GH4 and GoPro Hero 5 cameras in 4K UHD 2160p. No, we don't have rabies in the UK. For more about my encounters with foxes go to askulkoffoxes.... .

  • @TrevorDennis100

    I used to live in Mount Road, South Benfleet, UK, and there was lots of wild life in the woods around us. Next door to us was the last house before the woodland, and they fed the badgers every night ringing a bell just after dark to let them know it was dinner time. Some nights there were as many as twenty badgers, and occasionally a fox would happen by and stand outside the ring of badgers building up courage to dart in, grab some food, and disappear into the darkness. Our two cats liked to watch but only from about ten feet away, although they never appeared to be nervous. Just up the hill from us there is a man well known for looking after the badgers, and has been on the TV (about 20 years ago to my knowledge - I have lived in New Zealand since 2004).

    Foxes look like something between cat and dog, how can some people kill these cuties. How can some people set their hounds on them. Omg. I can never hurt a fly let alone a breathing living creature. These man are monsters for letting their dogs do that while they stand and watch. Why does the poor fox have to die when you choose. I only believe that people that hurt animals they are deep down serial killers or even abnormal that they can’t kill human so they take it out on defenceless voiceless creatures. Every-time I see a man loving animals my heart cries happy tears. I can’t explain the pleasure. I wish every human beings respected and had compassion for living gods creatures.
