@rufustheduck I often watch Midsomer Murders. That area must have a terrible rodent problem, for there to be so many foxes barking all the time.

@Nazani its difficult to say what's worse - all the rats, or all the murder

@rufustheduck
That's wonderful.

@rufustheduck how long before the dog fox becomes a fox dog?

They're smart enough to be wary of humans, and when I go into my garden, they watch me cautiously.

If I appear to be moving in their direction, they disappear into the bushes

@rufustheduck if not friend, why friend shaped?

They act very similarly to dogs. They chase each other, pretend to fight, and I've even seen them playing with balls and other things they can use as toys

@rufustheduck we’ve had some local foxes and if our dogs leave a toy outside they take them to the field next door and shred them.

@rufustheduck I will never understand why we didn't try to domesticate the Fox.

@rufustheduck why the fuck is a fox living in this suburban devastation of nature thriving more than most people? Your world is crumbling, your habitat shattered? How dare you frolic!

Bet that fox doesn’t even pay taxes…

@BackFromTheDud don't worry - apparently they're in the process of domesticating themselves
