Why Are Foxes So Cute and Fascinating?
Foxes are fascinating creatures apart from being endearing. They have some remarkable qualities. Scientists have found that foxes can see the Earth’s magnetic field and use that skill to hone in on prey. They stalk, pounce, and sometimes play with their game when hunting. They also can retract their claws like a cat.
Besides these skills, foxes are incredibly playful. They have natural curiosity and mischievousness, which can entertain people for hours. There are so many beautiful fox species worldwide. These cute and funny fox pictures remind us how wonderful they are.

Are Foxes Friendly With Humans?
You might have seen many cute foxes before but wondered if they were friendly enough to approach. Foxes are generally scared of people and might run away if they detect a presence. Sometimes, foxes visit people at home or when they are out for a walk.
A wild fox might not trust humans but can become friendly over time. If a person feeds the fox and does not harm it, it might learn to trust the human. There are some beautiful instances, like when a woman fed foxes for 25 years, and now their offspring visit her. However, this does not mean that you should approach all foxes without worry. They can be unpredictable and attack if they feel threatened.

Are Foxes Smart?
You might have noticed that foxes are playful, cunning, and wily in these cute fox pictures. Out of nearly 40 species of foxes, 12 belong to the ‘vulpus’ genus and are considered exceptionally smart. Meaning that their intelligence eclipses dogs.
Foxes are part of the canine family and descend from the opposite end of the family tree as dogs. Foxes are more intelligent than dogs because they might approach the same problem from multiple angles. They also have excellent memory and spatial reasoning.
Foxes are smart enough to communicate and understand each other's body language, facial expressions, and scents. Dutch photographer Roeselien Raimond’s wildlife photography also shows that foxes are highly loving creatures apart from being so intelligent.

Why Are Foxes So Playful?
Foxes are naturally curious and playful creatures. This playing behavior starts from a young age, and it’s a way of establishing a social hierarchy. This struggle for dominance begins when the foxes are pups, and their play can be pretty brutal.
Animal behaviorists have found that 1 in 5 fox pups might not survive due to their harsh way of playing. You’d never think these cute baby foxes engage in such aggressive play.

How to Draw Cute Foxes?
After seeing all these cute pictures of foxes, it’s no wonder that you might want to take to art to express the beauty you saw. You can learn how to draw a cute fox by watching this video or following these steps:
- Make a symmetrical horizontal oval, which will become the head.
- Then, draw two pointed ears up top.
- Inside the head, draw two cute oval eyes with eyebrows.
- Make a button nose in the center.
- Draw its mouth so it’s shaped like a curvy ‘w.’
- Then, make a cylindrical body and add two legs in front.
- Lastly, it would be best if you made a big bushy tail for the fox.

Why Are Snow Foxes So Cute?
If you check out these winter fox pictures, you’ll realize that Arctic foxes are incredibly cool and cute. They have a beautiful white coat, which provides excellent camouflage for hunting in the snow. This warm coat helps them survive in temperatures as low as -58° Fahrenheit (-14° Celsius). These winter foxes don’t shiver until the temperatures reach -94° F (-34° Celsius).

If anyone is curious why the have duct taped a tarp to their couch, it’s because foxes will burrow. That’s what they do, so pet foxes often destroy sofas by ripping into them and using it like a den. They’re trying to keep him from doing that. (Although I don’t know if the tarp deterrent would actually work.)
It's A Baby Fox
Omg BP has been spying on me… foxes are my favorite animal and I have had a bad day
Top two animals I like the most: foxes and otters. I just find them too cute to pass up. Many of the seem very friendly.
Foxes from different parts of the world look quite different. It would be nice to have the locations labelled.
Yes and they usually get turned over to fox sanctuaries because the owner has no idea how to care for them. They are messy and not exactly potty trained.
Load More Replies...So nice to see foxes doing well all over the globe. Especially the ones that are free and choose to interact with us on their terms.
These animals are so cute. But we need to remind ourselves they belong in the wild. There may be some circumstances that would require human intervention but lets not go domesticating them w***y-nilly now.
Please don’t make friends with them or feed them on a regular basis. It seems all very well and nice, but if you are their regular food source it’s less likely they’ll teach their young how to hunt. They need to know how to do this. As well, considering human being’s not so great track record with wild animals, they need to be kept very afraid of us. Not all humans have good intentions towards wild animals and they can’t judge who does and who doesn’t. Wild animals need to stay wild. I know this won’t be a popular opinion, but check with any wildlife rehab centre and they will say just that.
Most of these must be friendly British foxes, here in the rural U.S. they are not friendly or safe. If one comes too close to you there's a good chance it's rabid, and they will steal your chickens and cats.
How can they be different maybe in states people try to kill them more

Ok, but foxes DO NOT LOOK REAL. They look like puppets in most pictures. Don’t ask me why. Maybe they’re too cute.
Where I live, we have both red foxes and Eastern coyotes (larger than their Southwestern cousins because they're 60% coyote, 30% Eastern grey wolf, and 10% dog). Since they have the same diet, we never have both simultaneously; it's either a "fox year" or a "coyote year." 2022 is a fox year, so I hope to see some kits practicing hunting in my yard. (And my dogs are fascinated with "forest puppies.")
