My colleague once had a grey fox that visited her regularly at her research site, but one day it turned up with a large gash in its side. She live trapped it and took it to a vet for rehab, then released it again two weeks later. Her thanks for doing this was that her car stank terribly of musk for weeks, and when we released the fox, it turned around, looked at us pointedly, then defecated and urinated. Never saw it again. Beautiful animal, but be aware of the musk.

No good deed goes unpunished!
More proof they are sly creatures!
I love this to bits! I had no idea that grey foxes could climb trees, but just look at those little fellas go! They are having the best of best times!
I really loved that video too -- such exuberance!
I remember someone once describing foxes as dog hardware running cat software, and that's 100% this video!
Oh wow -- that's a perfect metaphor!
