A red fox in Heilongjiang was rescued by the police after being poisoned, and after more than 60 days of careful care, it cried when it was released, and looked back while walking.
Everything has a spirit, and there is also a relationship between humans and animals.
Human beings give to pets, pets deliver all the trust, human rescue of stray animals, some animals also know gratitude, crows feed, animals also have feelings.
Although it is rare to see the deeds of animals to repay their kindness, this does not mean that there are none, dogs and cats must be able to experience that these two are relatively spiritual animals, and get along very harmoniously with humans, bringing a lot of joy to humans.
In the wild, there is also a creature with a very strong aura, and even a belief in some places, which is the red fox.
On December 1, 2023, an enthusiastic man broke into the police station with a dying creature in his arms and asked for help.
The police hurriedly stepped forward to check and found that it was a fox, with fiery red fur all over its body, obviously a red fox.
The fox was now dying, and when it was placed on the ground, it convulsed all over its body and wailed from its mouth.
The police judged that the fox may have been poisoned, and immediately took the little fox to the pet hospital, and after a series of tests, it was determined that the little fox was food poisoning, and immediately gave the little fox an antidote.
The next day, the little fox's symptoms improved and he had climbed back from the line of death, but he still had to continue observation and treatment.
The red fox is a national second-class protected animal, and citizens have the obligation to rescue and protect it.
The red fox, also known as the Hong fox, is the largest fox in the world and the most common.
In terms of appearance, the red fox can reach 50 centimeters at the shoulder, the longest body length can reach 90 centimeters, and the weight can reach about 30 catties, and the size of the male is larger than that of the female.
They have small heads, large ears, and long, slender bodies with a reddish coat that is very eye-catching.
Of course, the red fox has not only a red coat, but also grayish-brown, black and white on its legs and tail.
There are many species of red foxes, and according to statistics, there are a total of 47 subspecies. The appearance of the red fox will vary somewhat depending on the living environment.
It usually has brown or red fur on the back and white or yellowish-white on the belly.
The tail of the red fox is very beautiful, it grows big and fluffy, and the tail is the "coat" of the red fox, and the tail can help the red fox to keep out the cold when the weather is cold.
The rescued red fox was at the policeman's uncle's place, eating and drinking for two months, and when his body was fully recovered, he was released into the wild.
The scene when the release was returned, the police uncle was also reluctant, after these months of getting along, he had already had a relationship with this animal, and the little fox was reluctant, not to mention humans?
Don't look at the rescued red fox behaved well, in fact, the essence is also dependent on the "preparation" life of eating and drinking, in fact, the red fox in the wild is a very cunning creature.
Red foxes can use the terrain and environment to hide themselves smoothly, and when they are hunted by predators, they will burrow directly into the flock to hide themselves, allowing humans to deal with their natural predators.
If there is nowhere to hide when they are being pursued, they also have a gland on their tail that emits an unpleasant smell that is very pungent and spicy to the eyes, which will keep other animals away and force predators to stop the pursuit.
What's more, red foxes will play dead directly, they can reduce their breathing rate to hide themselves temporarily, or they can look dying and quickly run away when people are unprepared.
The red fox is an omnivorous animal that eats a wide variety of foods, and normally they do not interfere with human life, because it is an extremely vigilant animal.
They can eat fish, birds, insects, etc. for food, and they will also look for food scraps in garbage heaps and trash cans to eat, and even frogs, rats, and crops in the fields.
The red fox is very widely distributed, and there are traces of this fox in the northern hemisphere, and traces of the red fox can be found in Europe, North America, and Asian grasslands.
The most popular places for red foxes to live are grasslands, woodlands and deserts, and because of the environment, some red foxes have to choose to settle in suburbs and cities with many people, which is enough to see that red foxes have strong adaptability.
Although the red fox is cunning, it also has a stupid side, and even some funny things will happen because of its stupid personality.
On January 5, a herdsman in Qinghai Province successfully rescued a trapped red fox.
I saw that the red fox in the video had his entire head stuck in the mouse hole, and his body struggled to pull his head out of the mouse hole.
The head of the red fox is very small, and the cartilage on the ears can be retracted backwards, so it is easy to stick its head into the mouse hole, but when it is withdrawn, because the cartilage on the ears cannot be tilted forward, the fox's head is stuck in the hole and cannot advance or retreat.
Fortunately, the herdsmen found it in time, and the herdsmen took out a hammer to chisel open the mouse hole, and the red fox was able to escape. Red foxes are not close to humans, and the wild red fox in the video ran away without looking back after being rescued.
Red foxes are distant and wary of humans, but they are not withdrawn and have a certain social nature.
In the Red Fox Clan, they are monogamous, much like us, but they are absolutely loyal to their other half.
Red foxes as adults. There is only one reproductive season per year, and they generally begin to give birth and mate in the spring. Cubs will be born about two months of pregnancy, and it is worth mentioning that the cubs will have some dull spots on their heads when they are born, and the whole cub looks very cute.
After birth, the mother takes care of the cubs, and after three months of straightness, they feed independently and learn basic hunting skills.
In addition, red foxes are very good at burrowing, not only digging holes, but also planning, during the breeding season, in order to prepare for emergencies, they will also dig a lot of spare holes.
After birth, the mother will take care of the cubs, and after three months of straightness, they will eat independently and learn basic hunting skills.
The red fox hunting skills are very superb. Adult red foxes consume nearly a kilogram of food per day, and they feed mainly on rodents, also known as rats.
The red fox has a highly acute sense of smell, allowing it to smell wild mice hiding deep underground. Red foxes also have a great sense of hearing, their ears can rotate 150 degrees, and in the snow they can hear mice moving under the snow just by hearing.
Although they have short legs, they are very good at running, and they are agile and fast, and can reach 50 kilometers per hour. And can swim.
Some people think that the appearance of the red fox is very cute, but can the red fox be kept as a pet?
Red foxes cannot be kept as pets because they are protected by the state.
Protected animals cannot be kept privately.
If it is through the formal channels of legal breeding, the purchase of a certificate of red fox, can also be raised, this kind of red fox is generally not the mainland native red fox, can be raised called "North American red fox", the scientific name is different.
Raising a red fox needs to be cool in summer, and it must be cleaned regularly to bathe and deodorize, because the red fox is the same as the ordinary fox, and it has glands on its body that smells.
It should also be noted that if you raise foxes, you must have a certificate, and only with a certificate can you be a pet domesticated.
There are also other foxes raised on the mainland, and in previous years the fox's fur was very valuable. Now it is more as a pet to raise, in the Harbin Ice and Snow World last year, the snow fox also had a small fire, and even invited the fox in the gym to come out for business, and the fox in the gym usually accepts incense and worships, which is the North American red fox.
Ordinary red foxes, we ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to see them, if you meet this creature in the wild and ask us for help, we must help.
