Actually, I don't think they're dumb for not moving. Foxes are proven to be quite intelligent and good problem-solvers, often finding creative ways to trick and catch their prey. I think that it didn't move because swift foxes has just recently been introduced to Alberta and are not yet used to encountering humans.
My favorite animal! & wait... Why was he calling that one dumb? I don't understand, if the fox was just sitting there... It's not like he fell or something.
They will get pretty close. Try sucking on your lip or the back of your hand softly the next time you see one. They think it is a rodent in distress and will come in looking for a free meal.
LOL! I can't help but laugh at you yelling at that little dude! It's just kinda...sad...it's not stupid, just acclamated to humans. They're a rather laid-back species. But they are rare, so thanks for the footage! I just wish that you didn't have to harras the poor thing to get it...
I'm with you arieslibra13....it's not dumb, it's just dozing in they sun and noticed you when you drived away. Thats why it ran back into it's den.
