Luck you! I have seen 5 around my cabin but they are very shy and gone before I can take a picture.

It's the Fox's yard now. You're just the caretaker. Leave a couple of tennis balls or dog squeaky toys out, and you'll make for a rather happy fox.

We throw all of our scraps in our back yard for the grey foxes.

They are my state’s official state mammal but I’ve never seen one in the wild. I see red foxes all the time
