Mother Fox Returns For Her Babies | Never Seen Before Footage!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 лют 2021
- Watch Gates Wildlife Control humanely remove a family of foxes from underneath a front porch/deck.
After going over the footage for an upcoming presentation I have, we decided to release some never seen before footage of our fox job from April 2019.
To see the first video we made in 2019 click here: • Baby Fox Frenzy | Too ...
To answer the most often asked question...we didn't forget a baby underneath. Mother animals will always return one last time to ensure they retrieved all of their young. Animals can't count like we can, which means they don't even know the number of babies they had in the first place! We appreciate the concern from everyone in the comments.
Please give this video of thumbs up if you enjoyed it!
We GET THEM OUT and KEEP THEM OUT.

My grandfather rescued an injured fox, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula in the 1970s. It took to him, lived with him, and rode in his pickup truck, looking out the back window all the time. After it was healed it took off. Then months later SHE came back with her kits, just to show them to my grandfather. He pet them and played with them for a few hours on his front porch, and then she left with her babies, never to be seen again. She just wanted him to meet her family. She considered him a friend. He's passed away now but that story lives on.
Lovely Story...
That story is cool. Animals are intelligent creatures.
This is incredible...animals are very smart creatures without doubt
And who knows, maybe the descendants of mother Fox are still thinking of your grandfather, the good person who saved their family.
They make Disney movies about wonderful stories like that! Or, they used to!
I love that the mom comes back one last time, like “let me make sure I didn’t miss one”
That’s actually the part that scares me the most, the way she desperately was looking around it’s possible they blocked the porch off with 1 baby still inside!
Lol
@@shanejarms4827 😰 oh damn i hope that wasn't the case
@@shanejarms4827 I’m sure they would’ve heard it or listened for it they looked very diligent. Also if you look they lifted the entire front panel and check every section to the back. This is what they do for a living so.
@@shanejarms4827
Or she can't count
Even checks the box to make sure she’s got them all!
What a mum!👍♥️
Hello there Julie, how are you and where are you watching from?
@@jerryneumann4626
I grew up in what was then called Berkshire, now Oxfordshire, UK,near the UFFINGTON White HORSE.
Went on my first & last fox hunt age 10, saw pregnant fox ripped apart, was very sick, much to amusement of the red coats!!
Walked home, from then on decided to do all I could to stop this vile”sport?”
My father had a market garden & used to say
“ you had to be a half wit if you couldn’t protect your chickens from foxes?
They dig so just build channel of concrete round chicken coups.
LIVE & LET LIVE 👍♥️
@@julielevinge266 that’s a lovely place?
Maybe one puppy was missing? Did they check well under the stairs?
@@Michelmulkensawe true 😢
I love how she kept checking to see if she left anyone behind. That's how you know you got too many babies lol
Lol that's for sure
either she lost count or 1 or a few more somewhere under the deck at other corner
@@FunktasticoI was also wondering if the humans missed one. Apparently, foxes can’t count so well. 😂
Hi
Yep. Mom needs to keep checking a few times to make sure - since they don't do math.
Humans: we must handle babies with utmost care
The fox: **y e e t** we gotta gOOOO
Lol
Mama fox was extremely stressed out resulting in her rough treatment and probably had few if any previous experiences with such a box. Normally, she would be going into a hole to take them out not lifting them over the side.
I freaking lol'd so loud & hard while drinking tea when I read this! 🤣
I love when people COPY other peoples comments, get over 1k likes, and take the credit for it... I mean come on @bonnie... stop acting like you didn’t copy this from
@@kreeves122 I'd be worried about the fact that you're worried about something like that..
"Are those my kids?"
**Sniff sniff**
"Those ARE my kids!"
**Starts moonwalking**
she is smart enough to pull off all dry leaves away because they create sound later on when she plans to help her kids out. Foxs are very cautious. Meanwhile shes doing this and triggering sounds, notice that she is ready for the run away at all time if she spots someone meanwhile shes doing this.
Sees a great video.
Durp Durp
Has to try and be funny.
@@roboco302 Sees a comment making a joke
"Durp durp" I'm gonna get annoyed by this and tell everyone that I'm annoyed and implying that making jokey comments makes you stupid.
@@AslanW Joke comments are dumb and show you only care about likes. Hope you get enough attention today!!!!
@@roboco302 I hope that me giving you attention doesn't make you think that your opinion matters in the slightest to anyone.
I commented because that's what popped up in my head as I saw the video and I thought someone else might enjoy that mental image as well. That's my motive for commenting. Your motive seems to be to act like a really, really boring asshole.
The fact that she was really making sure she grabbed all her pups just was so special to me!
Hello there pretty is that really you on your profile photo? Wow!
@@jerryneumann4626💀
Absolute creep.
Is one missing?
That made me wonder. Was there one missing somehow? But hopefully not so beautiful they are.
Love this - also because the owner obviously had a VERY BIG HEART for these baby foxes to let the rescue team just saw all of his patio into pieces in order to save these little ones.
She thinks the box is going to close and trap her inside, she's testing the box to see if it's a trap, she's smart.🦊
I said the same thing!
I did feel like she was going "I %$%$# know this is a trap, but my babies are in there."
I'm sure that is true.
No for me buddy. It takes a lot of time, study and strategy to build or find a den. Trap or not she'll get as much of her babies. What she did for a long time, scuppering and disturbing the ground was a sign of frustration. That she needs to immediately remember where her second best option for a den. She didn't had one. Considering the time she took. Because there are lots of things consider relocating. Competitors, predators and comfort. She thought that after labour she can only focus on finding food to produce milk. That wasn't the case anymore. Now, the real brilliance was how the animal instinct kicked in. She and her pups are made exposed in this side, not very welcoming indeed. Basic and simple...she went unto the other side. Just a guess.
why they say smart as a fox
The babies were so quiet. Most baby animals are screaming like they’re being tortured. These guys were so chill!
Not in the wild, be quiet or it'll be dinner
@@Superfandangoo Exacttly
I think they are not hungry, that is why
@@simplyme166 yes they look well fed
Staged that’s y
Foxes are such a beautiful animal. Thank you so much for saving this precious little family ❤
I love how gentle she Yeeted them out of the box 📦 onto the ground ...I laughed a little .😅
She still couldn't believe this wasn't a trap. Why was a mysterious white box with her babies just sitting out in the open? It has to be a trap right?
lol clunk
I had a family of nine foxes living under my summer house in Dulwich (south east London) - I found a female cub in the bushes, very young.... She stayed in the garden for years, she recognised my voice (and probably smell) and would come when I called her.... She would wait patiently at the back door every morning to be fed (she really liked ham and her favourite was prawn crackers which were a very rare treat!) and if I didn't appear quickly enough she would jump up and rattle the door handle..... She would bring her cubs to show me every spring for about five years.... There was also a very large, quite majestic looking male fox, clearly the 'daddy' - he wasn't aggressive but I always knew to keep my distance.... One day he appeared with the end of his tail hanging off, it was obviously painful and infected - I crushed some antibiotics into a jam sandwich over the course of a few days and the damaged end fell off, with the infection cleared.... He then would wait in the garden to be fed with the others.... Six months later, he appeared again with one eye missing and a very infected socket - again antibiotics in a jam sandwich and a week later he was as good as new - I named him Cyclops and he became very much a part of my fox family and lived for another seven years.....
I'm so glad they had you to care for them!
Awesome that you did that and won his trust. He obviously was a brawler and he needed someone like you to patch him up now and then. Kudos to you!
Wow, God bless you. Thank-you.
What an inspiration of love.
Thanks 👍
For those asking, the reason why she digs is because she wants to mix her footprints with sand and avoid being tracked considering that someone previously found her nest. Also they are super smart at looking for traps etc. They learned that from their ancestors.
Thanks for this info! :-)
I wish humans did
Maybe trying to tunnel under the box
I thought perhaps she was using the sound of the rustling leaves to make sure that no humans were going to come out while she was moving the kits... then I got to the time lapse part and saw your explanation
Thought the same i.e. tunnelling. And the way she was dropping them on the ground, she probably did the prep for reducing the impact.
You can see her thinking and quadruple checking the box at the end so considerate the people and the mother
এই সব কোরে লাভ আছে সেই মেয়ের দোশ ওন্যের রুপ নিয়ে কি বুঝলি কতো বড়ো চিটিং বাজ
I like how she makes sure she didn’t leave any behind.
I love that she comes back to double check if she got them all!
IDK, I was worried there was supposed to be another one, one that the people didn't find
@@christinep.
I agree, i believe she was looking for another pup😔
Most animals can't count. She does not know how many pups she has, so she's just coming back until there's none left.
@@coJestMustangi I've read research that birds, bees, wolves and many other animals can count in some fashion. But even if a fox can't count it is possible she knows her babies. Your mother would know if your sister was missing even if she could not count. We often underestimate animals.
@@robertjansen7361 ... if one was missing, she would know. The Gate's service might have missed one kit, who had a chance to hide, while they were removing his/her siblings, but Mama will go back and find him/her, once the others are safely in the new den.
They're not newborns, so she knows. That may be why she checked the box.
I love how she makes noise to see if there is an animal trying to set her up. She’s making sure the coast is clear and being extra cautious.
It was just digging out of stress it didn't know what to make of the situation lol
Also probably trying to cover it's scent so the potential predators it is stealing her young back from don't notice her and try and follow her back or something
Wrong.
Yes...stress.
@@yooperlite who are you to say wrong? You don't know the mommas intentions ....
I doubt she stumbles across them😂 she has seen every single moment youve spent there and knows exactly where her babies are. Intelligent creatures...she fully inspects the box, can i dig under it, is it a trap...her motherly instinct overcomes her fear. She is braver every time. Wish we had more human parents like this. Great video👏🏽
3:41 The way those babies are just cuddled in her arms. ❤
I love how she remembers to come back for every single one, then one more time just to make sure she doesnt missing one. Lovely.
I feel like she came back because one is missing. She remembers how many she has and was like "where is the last one guys?"
@@CharleyCarey No, most animal mothers always come back to check just to make sure they got them all.
@@killerqueen6054 -it’s not just that, all animal mothers remember their own my a distinct smell they put on them. Notice she’s sniffing around besides looking around. Different species have ways to chemically mark & sense things out. I’m sure she was sniffing for her scent on her baby’s & warmness of that scent.
She can count😁
@@CharleyCarey I got that feeling too!
I love the way she just yeets them out of the box and is like "WE GOTTTA GOOOO"
And makes the dirt soft for them to come out
@@royalmcmorris1211 she isn't making dirt soft she is trying to dig under to get them.
Hello Bethany, how are you doing today...?
Lol yeets is right! :D
I think she’s looking if there was a trap or danger
A mom who cares for her babies. God bless her.
Hello there Linda, how are you?
How incredibly calm those baby fox were while that woman was holding them.
I love watching the gears turning in her head as she figured out how to get them out of the box, you can see how she’s trying everything while being as cautious as possible. Such an expressive creature
She was getting frustrated in the beginning when she couldn't reach into the box. I was wondering if she would ever figure out that if she came up onto the first step she would be above the top of the box making it easier to reach in and grab them.
That's because she was thinking out of the box ... hehehe
@@2ndhandSue she probably didn't want to turn her back towards the door.
She knew exactly what to do. She just wasn't sure whether the box was a trap. That's why she's so cautious.
@@srccde THIS IS CRUELTY TO ANIMALS. SEPERATING THE CHILDREN FROM THE MOTHER.
She came back for every one of them and looks like she came back one extra time to make sure she has them all. She's a great mommy!
Or maybe one is missing :(
That's what I thought is there one missing
Good Mommy..looks like ones missing
I don't think she actually knows how many they are. I think she is just keeps coming back because of the smell.
@@ppdan that was exactly what I thought... You could tell she was stressed out still.
Animals that live in the wild are so amazing how they survive that mother is awesome.
I'm baffled as to why those pups were so docile at the beginning. Baby kittens younger than that would like to tear your hand off. Very cool vid. Thank you for helping. 👍
It's scientifically impossible for a new born kitten to remove a human hand
@@ivygoode586 scientifically figuratively speaking. And who said newborn..? Not meeee.
@@GregoryP-jw8qjwhat part of "younger than that" you forgot? pre born then?
@@swilleh_ younger than those fox kits not younger than baby kittens. I can understand your confusion though. If you read it slowly you'll get the reference I'm going for.
She was so scared, poor girl... I'm glad all went well! Cheers guys!
Oh so cute! I would have a fit! Baby Fox! Too cute!
That's so great! So glad she her got her young! But sure didnt know they had that many. That's the sweetest thing. Such a treat a real treat! So glad it all worked out for them. Great job!
She acted as though one was missing....she was pacing around, checking the box, the reluctantly left.
I hope they all were retrieved.
Mommy fox was like, it’s inhumane to evict me now with COVID in these streets...
Those babies are tuff
Aware of all kind of tricks, traps, and hardship, the momy fox never abandoned her cubs. She is clever, meticulous, and determined to "rescue" all her babies. A great lesson for human parents.
Idk why but I read this with the accent the discovery channel guy has
Human parents do the same. They do more indeed
How darling, God works well with instinct
Definitely a spirit animal ❤
Why didn't the idiots leave the mother for. To finish raising her babies then close up the porch. Ridiculous and terrifying for the mother fox. Humans -- uuuugggghhhh!!!
She dug the leaves and twigs away because they were producing noise, and could give her away while she saves her babies. I love her dedication. There’s a reason they say ‘clever like a fox’.
You guys are both wrong! She was mad they touched her babies so she tore up their yard!
She had no concept of "inside a box" and tried to dig under the box to get to the babies. Or it was some kind of displacement activity before she figured out how to take them out over the edge of the box.
Um, maybe but most likely trying to dig under the box as they have a downward way to get through. A pounce method like when the hunt. They go down to go through
She was trying to cover up her paw prints so dogs or other animals can’t follow her sent foxes are really smart and adaptable animals they will play tricks ect
*I absolutely adore how the mom returns one last time, as if she's saying, 'Let me double-check and make sure I didn't overlook any.*
I love the fact that she is such a good mama!! She came back even after she grabbed the last one to look around and make sure she didn't leave any of her babies behind!!! 💜 I love wildlife!!!
The wildlife is not so wild after all 😁♥️
Absolutely wonderful
oftentime animals can teach us much Goodness 🧡♥️🦊🕊️
yeah
They don't do maths. That's why. Nothing to do with bieng good. 😅
What if there was one more but it was still under there wood and they missed him…
Love how she kept looking in empty box to make sure all babies are out. Can't get enough of those cutie babies. 😁👍
@Donna di Lode Agreed, I made a comment pretty much saying what you just said yourself.
She didn’t miss any in the box let’s hope we humans didn’t miss any additional babies under the deck. Since the little ones were hiding from the noise in different locations from the start. It was beautiful to watch her get them…For a moment I was hoping for a look at where she took them-I hope they are all safe. This was a really enjoyable video.
@Donna di Lode She def seemed to be searching and coming towards the door expectantly! I really hope they left part of that deck open so she can get one that may have been missed. They may have kept one? As unprofessional as that would be they handled them SO MUCH (too much) and were def quite smitten! I hope the Mama and babies are ok!
Are we sure that maybe there isn’t another baby under the porch and this is why mama came back several times to check the empty box?
@Donna di Lode Yup. 100%. 1 or 2 is/are missing.
Wow super powerful, my favorite part is when she double check multiple times making sure she didn’t see anymore love it!!
When she kept checking I kept thinking omg there's one missing she can't find.
I hope that wasn't the case. Such a good momma
What a couple of beautiful people as well. There's nothing more endearing than someone who cares so much for animals ❤
These folks know what is important. They don't have to think twice about ripping up their porch. Wonderful. Kudos and blessings to you. Human beings.!
Amen! Just reminds me of OUR MIGHTY GOD, who is Creator, of these Amazing Creatures!
You should not mess with animals
The foxes weren’t stuck or in any danger though. This is an example of humans meddling and interfering with animals for no reason. She couldn’t even get them out the box without hurting them SMH
@@thebadguychinli4011 Humans meddling?? Excuse me, it's not like these people are messing around in a wild area and relocating the animals for no reason. The fox family was living in a less than ideal place, and there IS the potential of them getting stuck. Plus, you don't want foxes living near your house because they can be dangerous to children and pets. And the mama fox didn't hurt her babies while taking them away. Seriously- I think you should trust the professionals and not make ignorant comments.
Monica Marsing-Did you even WATCH the video?!Nobody here is “messing” with these foxes.These baby foxes were in an area of the homeowners’ porch that was unsafe for both the babies and the humans.These folks did exactly what was best for everyone by gently removing the babies and placing them in an open crate so their mother could retrieve them later.So perhaps you could enlighten all of us with your extensive knowledge about wild animals on how this situation was handled improperly?
I love how after collecting them all she checks the empty box THREE times just in case, great Mama to those cubs 🐾
Maybe she had one more baby she was looking for? The mother must know how many babies she has..
Wet isn't it.
Hope there are not any babies missing!
@@shqiponja9743 They are smart, but, well, 7 cubs... I doubt she could have more, and that she could actually count them. Even most humans need to count objects when there are more than 7, rather than just knowing their number at a glance.
@@TDOBrandano
So, why does she come back if she, certainly knows she left the box empty last time; if not for looking for one more child, missing child?
Thank you so much for ensuring the babies are safe for mum fox to pick. Wow didn’t realize how smart they are. She even had to check and double check to make sure that she didn’t miss any of the babies. I hope for the kids safety at the new location . God bless them all!
Need more humans like this ❤
I have so much sympathy for wild animals living in urban areas. Thanks for helping her!
how exactly are they helping?
by removing them from a safe place from the weather and other animals where they are not bothering anyone.
Yea real helpful.
Me too. Tap your car horn each time wildlife crosses the road. It scares them, but saved them. Also teaches them to avoid traffic!
yup bc before all those buildings were built that was their home
@@Dr.Jekyll_ I also don‘t understand this removal from an obviously safe place to an unknown maybe more dangerous place or maybe to a place where they get removed again. Additionally the dangerous crossing of the street, what an unnecessary stress for all of them! I would be happy if they choose my garden and that safe looking place. I would do the right contrary and leave them alone. Totally wrong message with this video!
These fox pups were too big to get out on their own, it seemed@@astara5802
I love how she grabs them out of the box like she’s kidnapping them 😂
Yeah, she was grabbing them like she stole something, hahaha.
There is a dinosaur called egg thief when it was in reality just roosting.
I think she was scared the box might have a trap or something
She is showing signs of a lot of emotions and strategizing. Clever little things.
She’s trying to not get caught herself.
I was CRACKING UP starting at 7:40, watching the fox digging in fast motion!! 😂😂 Remind me of watching old episodes of Benny Hill....🤣🤣
awhh... this is fantastic. The love of a momma to her babies is amazing. Beautiful animals.
It’s so amazing how she came back for every single baby then after just to make sure she had em all I hope they grew up to be healthy foxes
me too stay safe wherever you are out the
re1
7 babies! And momma came back one last time just to double check! Bless these wonderfully intelligent animals! 🙏🐕💯
Yes I saw that also!
Love it. I love wildlife. Thanks
One of the best I’ve seen
There is nothing in this world like a mother’s love. ❤️
Except a father's love.
@@markuse3472 There is nothing stronger than the instincts of a mother.
Perfectly said! 💗.
Annie Freiler except the instincts of a father
@@fortnitepros8025 well father instincts are different - male foxes will kill baby foxes even if it's theirs.. Some animals will kill their offspring so the mother can get pregnant again.. Crazy world
Bless that mom, she is willing to defy the smells of humans and the sounds to get to her babies.
That’s so sad. What a great Momma. As a homeowner I don’t know that I could have kicked her out . Especially during winter. As the babies grew in a few months, I imagine she would have moved on at that point.
Foxes are a common rabies vector, and allowing them to essentially cohabitate with humans could be extremely dangerous to the residents of that home. While it is unlikely that any of those foxes were infected with the virus at the time, they could be exposed at any time.
same and not like they’re skunks or wolves or something.
At least they were moved humanely, instead of having them killed
@@justinblin who knows where her new den is, if she even found one. This “eviction” could have easily been this precious family’s demise.
@@Missdee10 that’s still better than killing them for certain, especially since foxes are pretty resourceful and we’re probably fine
She's definitely a better mom than a lot of human parents..

Foxes are so smart. And that mother was so scared, you could see her hind legs literally shaking the first time.
Ppl
Deemed kinda dumb to me 🥴
♡That's a good mama!♡
But she will not be leave one behind
she is smart enough to pull off all dry leaves away because they create sound. Foxs are very cautious.
I thought she only had four babies! Wow! Good mother fox!❤😊
You people are absolutely wonderful.!!! Thank you.
AND what a wonderful fox mama .... she made 100% sure she picked up ALL her babies.
She’s a great mom. Didn’t leave one behind! A litter of 7, that’s amazing!
I was worried they may have left one of the babies under the porch. It seemed like the mum was looking like there was one missing🤷♀️
Yes,Debra. I agree,they missed a baby.
@@kyleklmondwa9042 Luckily foxes don't watch Fox 'News' all the time where hunting with their guns is the favorite hobby of republicans.
She even went back to carefully double-check she had them all. Some human parents could learn from her
@@kyleklmondwa9042 And I won't even mention all the nature destroyed by republican politicians sponsored by the oil industry, because wind and solar power doesn't work in Texas, except Finland and Antarctica have no problem at all with them freezing up.

That was AWESOME!
Busy mom for sure!🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊
Why can’t this ever happen to me?! 😂 The little Fox 🦊 is sooooo sweet ❤❤❤
So smart. She's clearly nervous about the lid. Tried to dig under
Her behavior was absolutely fascinating. The clawing at the dirt, the extreme wariness not to just reach over and grab the kits. Lovely and clever
She was trying to dig her way to them until she figured out she had to go over the side of the box. Looked pretty rough the way she dragged them out of there. But happy she got a better grip on them to carry them to the new location. 7 babies wow
@@recoveringsoul755 I think she saw the open top, she just didn't trust it. That's why she snatched the babes up so quickly. She thought it would be some sort of trap.
@@MegaRudeBoy69 good point
Clever, yes! Clever like a Fox. 🦊
@@recoveringsoul755 Foxes are born to dig into or rather under obstacles such as fences.
They are just too cute, you can see how someone might mistake them for puppies. What a good Mom, I was cheering her on, she broke my heart desperately trying to dig her way into the box. Thank you for your work, it must be the best job in Canada.
I've been feeding foxes in our garden for years, sometimes the whole family comes 😊 such beautiful creatures & mums always the best mumma❤
The unceremonious way mama fox yanks them out of the box was hilarious! Reminded me of my own no-messin’ mama!
Yes it was hilarious seeing that and also like oh goodness Mama! A little rough aren’t we? 🤣🤣🤣Mama Fox and the babies were adorable!
Yeet and throw 😂😂😂😂
That box did look a bit suspicious....
Scoop and run, just like ambulance people…. Also after the last one she comes back twice. One to check the box and 2 to check under the porch. Notice her sniffing the porch, the stair back that has the chicken wire on it.
Let's be real the box was kinda weird they could've put them in a basket were it could be easy for her to look into
Mama fox was not playing around. She got all her kids back! True legend.
Those poor fox kits really got bumped when she pulled them out! But they sure are hardy! She was so thorough in coming back to double-check to make sure not one was left behind, ha, ha!
Thank you for putting these beautiful little creatures in a safe location for the mother fox to collect them. This was beautiful to watch, those babies are cute and the mother fox is a very beautiful creature as well.
I lived in a place in the middle of London for a while and below my apartment was a small area of unused land. The foxes had moved in from the country and set up home in the unused land. The screeches of them mating was very fightening and sounded like Banshees wailing. It was always a great joy to stand on my terrace looking down below on to the unused land where the beautiful fox cubs could freely run about and play without any fear of humans bothering them, sometimes they would spot me from below and give a great curious quizical stare.
On one occasion the young cubs were exploring a nearby garden and one of them got his head stuck in a narrow opening on an old Belfast Sink. The poor little cub couldnt free itself no matter how it tried and the mother was very perplexed by the situation looking around and in myndirection for help and a solution, I tried the neighbours but to no avail and then I phoned the RSPCA and explained the situation. Within 30 mins they sent someone round and freed the cub. I was very pleased with my little part in the rescue op. :-)
You had concern and ACTED on it. Good of you.
She looked so worried that she missed one, so sweet! Only took her 5 minutes to come and get them. I never saw a baby fox, so cute, almost like kittens!

Unironically enough, baby foxes are called 'kits". As in Kit Carson.
Foxes are something like a cross between cats and dogs, even tho they are in the canine family. Fox can retract their claws like a cat. And other things.
This is my favorite animal of all time!! I love how she grabs them, throws them to the ground and off she goes!!!! Great momma
You are a great mommy, foxy! ❤
Man, those pups are tough, the way the mom hurriedly flings them out of the box.
I was thinking the same thing. I kept thinking your giving your poor babies concussions.
Obviously they're made out of rubber.
@@jamieandrew-kromer8008 Especially you can hear their little heads hitting the box lol.
Because these morons made it too high. I’d be really surprised if any of those kits survived. Both because of the trauma of the endless handling and the stench of these people all over them. Wild animals will ABANDON offspring that smell strange or threatening so well done to these two utter scum bags.
@@NineTammy Ah yes, the ramblings of someone who is uneducated. Would you like to make yourself look even more foolish? Want to do some more childish name calling? Based on your musical tastes, you are far too old to be acting this way. "The myth about human scent causing abandonment is also untrue for most other animals, including mammals. Baby animals that have been handled by biologists are usually reunited with their mothers, who do not appear bothered by the biologists’ scent on their young." www.adfg.alaska.gov/index.cfm?adfg=wildlifenews.view_article&articles_id=426 Add in that this fox was already used to humans a little bit seeing as she had no problem coming around while they were working. I have foxes in a rural area, and you are lucky to see one once or twice a year even though there is at least one den right behind my house.
Also, those "morons," as you want to so childishly call them, did not just suddenly build that box for that moment. They used what they had that would not allow the cubs to get out. That short fall is nothing for them.
You can feel her panic and anxiety...imagine being in her position.
With all the hammering and drilling, I'd be freaking out too.
@@SloaneLasers I'm upset with all the banging and the deep box.. more common sense. Hated to see the Mama stressed.
Moving house is always stressful.
Animal lovers are indignant this was so backwards!!!
About getting my babies back, I think I'll dig up your lawn first...
She launches each one out like they’re in trouble ……. “I told you not to strangers, just wait till I tell your dad” 🤣🤣
I wonder if one was missing? She was pretty adamant about looking around and with her actions, like one was missing :( Pretty little Momma. What wonderful people helping her, especially having to deconstruct their stairs! I hope they are blessed humans!
She was so stressed. I was stressed for her. Like you can do it! Come on!!🙏
omg me too
I was stressed for her too
Oh shit dude we used to follow each other on Instagram until my account got deleted 😂
@@philo2189 wild! Hope you make another one 🙂
So you do home construction too. Hard and very rewarding work. Those were some ridiculously cute babies. Mom was so brave and concerned.
The final check is always hilarious 🙂
- Are you sure there isn't one more? Sure? Positive? ... OK then!
Mom has obviously not seen a box before, she was well puzzled on how to get her babies out. Her instinct was to dig underneath like it was a fence, bless her. She finally managed to figure it out and took each quite roughly out one by one. Foxes can't count so she came back to check there weren't any more. I loved how she had to keep double checking to make sure she'd got them all. I liked how you just carried on making lots of noise even though she was fearful, not making it too easy for her and as close to reality as possible. Well done to everyone involved 👏 👍 may you have enough funds to rescue many more creatures.
I think she felt it could be a trap since the box had a lid. I agree, I love how she kept making sure she got all her babies! Very smart and brave mother Fox ❤️
Yall got way too much time on your hands.
I doubt she didn’t know how many babies she had. The people must have missed one.
She did that for cushion for the baby’s
Just couldn’t leave them alone
Watching mom fox stress out and almost dig another den before she got up enough fortitude to reach her head in and grab her pups was something I’ve never seen before. Amazing video. Well done
she is smart enough to pull off all dry leaves away because they create sound. Foxs are very cautious.
Awesomeness of her sly fox
Like the way she got.all 7 then double checked thats very A
@@SuryoyoEntertainment I thought the same at first, but I think shuffling all the leaves was louder, I think she was trying to dig her way into the box
to me it looked like she was creating noise to check if anyone hears her and checks in. she was constantly looking at the area where she heard the noise from the people while making noise herself, as if to see if she can safely get the babies.
The awe of the ‘re-homers’ is touching.
I've been doing rescue rehab for 50 years. I got started in it when I was 6 and haven't stopped. It can take a lot of time, money and patience but I wouldn't trade it for anything!
Frantic momma fox: "Are there any left? Have I forgotten anyone? Let me check. Let me double-check."
Fox: oh yeah, that's right, we all dined on the corpse of the stillborn. Silly me, I swear I'd lose my tail if it wasn't attached to my tookis...
And here we are as humans leaving our young in hot cars......
Yea that was incredible how she came back a few times to make sure she didn’t forget one. Absolutely amazing to watch nature working
@@freep2s yea couldn’t agree more.
My family once had to hand rear a kitten who was left behind when a feral cat got disturbed and moved her litter. Not sure if she lost count on lost her nerve but she never came back for the last one
I love how she straight snatches them, bonking their cute little heads everytime. Nature isn't gentle but thank God those little guys are built for that :)
Humans too:)
Maybe the lil foxes may have brain damage..its a metal box :x
@@fantasyxgrl784 does it take a specific type of hard material as opposed to other hard materials in order to cause specific brain damage towards any type of living creature? I mean I just need to remember how many different surfaces to ask the mothers about where they may have dropped their children in or banged around to ask about in order to make sure.
Maybe the humans should've placed the little foxes in cardboard box with a blanket instead :/ the mother fox was kind of rough with them.
@@fantasyxgrl784 she was in a hurry because the humans nearby kept drilling ...
She is so alert and careful! I will do the same to test the box if it’s a trap😂.
The babies definitely have whiplash with the way the mama grabs them 😂
The intelligence in her eyes. She looks directly at the camera numerous times and it just blew my mind. We have them in my neighborhood and my favorite time of year is when they have the babies and they make such cute noises. We have a natural wood and they stay in there most the time but every once in a while we get to see them, not that young though.
Bless you for keeping them safe & letting them go. I am very lucky to live with so much wildlife around me and I’d miss them all, the osprey, the fox, the snakes and even skinks, skunks and raccoons. They bring me joy when they come to visit and I watch them from the window.
Someone once told me that camera lenses look like eyes which is why animals are sometimes wary. Not sure if it’s true.
You are very lucky. In UK they are supposed to be protected but farmers kill them and then their bodies are littered on the roadside especially in Essex. Some people are very cruel.
@@saraswatkin9226 Farmers have a right to protect their livestock from them, foxes are ravenous predators, once they find a food source they keep coming back til it’s all gone. They make short work of small animals like chickens or ducks.
Me and a couple of my niggas bout to come thru and party in your yard.. we better get the same special treatment 🤣
No
The second one was like, 'NOPE nope' "my mommy said not to talk to strangers!"
I was going to make the same comment
This culture is growing only on modern city.
Indeed this was not on human culture, that’s how we born advanced than other animals. How you see is what you receive it. “Flowers has both rose and thorn” if you see flowers then you will see the world is like flowers, if you think there are only thorns around then you have only strangers around that will harm you every steps.
“Shadows only resemble how the object is”... Be optimistic 👍
The mama was really stressed out when she found her babies in that box. Her digging into the yard was her effort in creating a new den for her babies... plus, she did seem to be searching for another … I hope all of them were pulled out.
Shut up ye blert
. NOW HOW ARE THE MOTERE AND BABIES, CAN Y PLEASE UPLOAD LATEST VIDEO? EAGERLY WAITING.
YOU FOR GOT ONE - when she came back she telepathically looked for one more
You see the fox looking at the lid of the box with great interest. She’s like ‘Hang On A Minute’ 🧐. Very intelligent creatures
That fox has definitely seen a few traps in her day...
She’s a good mama but what a wild woman! Holy cow she’s rough on her poor little ones getting them out of that box!
Better injuries than death i guess
i love how she vaults each baby out with such force. and every single time the baby is like AAAAH and the moms like well another tuesday for me
There are so many human mothers that could learn from her.
I had anxiety watching her yank them put! 😮
they have never travelled at such speed or force.. (babies are surprisingly resistant to injury! you gotta put in some deliberate effort to fuck em up it’s crazy)
Mom's with many kids don't have time to mess around
Yeah, box is too deep IMO.
*I love how after collecting them all she checks the empty box THREE times just in case, great Mama to those cubs*
I just hope it was because they didn't miss one under the steps. She looked a little frantic. Perhaps it was because finding her pups inside of a box was a bit disorienting.
@@lottasunshine1325 I was thinking the same
This fox has better mother skills than most human ladies in 2023 😭🤣
True
Momma was so scared but so determined.. I felt bad for her..
I wish they had stopped working and just let Momma take her kids. Them making all that noise was a big issue.
same
There are words for people like them, non are good
Momma tought she found a safe place for her kids
They cut up their floor, take babies and film it to show everyone how awesome they are
So did I. The mama fox had to find another home because she was evicted. I wish he showed where she brought them. Would have been nice to see that she really did have a better place to go. The nice thing about her being under their porch is they wouldn't have to worry about mice, lol. But as those seven grew up, they would be a nuisance, being out of their habitat.
@@fonzdevries4575 i mean, do you want foxes living right outside your house?
Love how the Mother creeped around the back of the Bush to view her Babies. That's why they're considered to be "Sly Fox". Very intelligent Creatures.
And it is unbelievable that a whole horde of humans and dogs hunt a fox just for the sake of it. And they called themselves royalty. hmmm
Sly Cooper
And beautiful
@@martingsilva Yeah that's pretty wrong. But If you're a farmer and a fox is killing your livestock, You would have to hunt it down.
Yes, unlike the human ones who likely left one under the deck and sealed it in. Instead of trying to make money off the job he should have advised the homeowner to let them be until mama moves them on or they get old enough to leave on their own, then enclose the rest of the porch.
What a charming and emotional story of a mother worried about lost babies foxes. Thank you
021223/1452h PST 🇺🇸 Dear People, thank you for being so companionate, kind and considerate. The world needs people like you. Bless you both. 73s..
She went out to get some milk and came back to her house being foreclosed 😨
Right I would have let her stay 🤷🏽♀️
@@JustBeYouTy honestly same
Me too. I let rabbits stay once. They only stayed for about 2 weeks. I marked the spot in the yard so they wouldn’t get hurt by the lawn mower.
@@carmay3600 adorable and so sweet 🥰🥰
Happens. I went to the laundromat once, IN JANUARY, when it was 26 degrees outside. My son's were in elementary school and our only heat was electric. I came home and my landlady had cut my power off and my water. All because someone broke into my home, held me and my boys at gunpoint while his friend robbed us blind, including my rent money and every other penny I had. Making me late on my rent for the very first time.
She couldn't evict me, there are procedures for a legal eviction, but she could leave a widow with two small children and a broken down vehicle stranded in a dark and freezing cold home in the dead of winter.
I'm mostly amazed at how she very clearly removes all the leaves and other noise producing things from around the box to allow her to grab the babies unnoticed. That's incredibly smart.
I thought at first she was trying to undermine the box in hopes that they'd slip out, but now I wonder if that's not to mask her steps. Whatever it is, she's really clever and cautious. Foxes deserve their rep.
She was doing what foxes do, and trying to dig under because the walls are too high to lift them out.
@@fredmercury1314 she was masking her footprints 👣 so she doesn’t get tracked back to her nest like the last time
Avoiding all this
And at first, she did it while they were making noise, then stopped when the noise stopped. Then she did some test noises, and waited to see if anyone came, before doing more digging.
It was obvious that she was digging, think the box sat an empty ground and she thought she can remove them under the barrier. She realized that wasn't possible.
