Again the dark background slowed me down but it was challenging and kept me busy for a few minutes. I love the challenges but my eyes don't! Thanks again for a beautiful animal picture. I can understand those who want fox fur because it is so beautiful but I can't understand how they can kill such a beautiful creature.
They are gorgeous. One of my fav scenes on the film clip that introduces Nature on PBS is the fox doing a jump.

Amnd those "ladies" in the early part of the 20th century who wore fox furs - with head, paws and tail still attached.....beyond bizarre - yuk!

Hah--Jiggler I actually have one of those from my aunt when she died. I never wore it but I could not bear to throw it out or give it away. I can't bring the poor fox back to life so one day it might make some nice trim for a jacket.

That is without the paws or head which is fixed with an alligator clamp as a jaw to hold it together when you wear it around your neck. I would just use the furry body...or just keep it as an oddity to ponder what fashion is all about.
I remember seeing the hunt near us in England and always felt so very sorry for the creatures ~ having all those baying dogs after them. Don't get foxes (nor wolves) over here in NZ.

Haha - it is pixipixil..I wonder what the meaning behind the story was - so many of them were written that have meanings about the Kings and religion etc.
