Recently, Neatorama featured a remarkable collection of fox photographs shot by Russian miner Ivan Kislov on his work breaks. Kislov shared that, while he took photos of all wildlife he encountered, foxes made for the best subjects due to their curiosity and willingness to come close to him.
In certain key ways, foxes are part of the human experience. The animal inhabits every continent aside from Antarctica. Foxes are an integral part of popular culture, due to their prominence for centuries in both eastern and western folklore. In such age-old stories, the fox is generally portrayed as wily and mischievious. Such a representation may be explained in part by the resourcefulness and crafty hunting style of the animal, in which it lays camouflaged in natural cover, hiding until it pounces when the time is right.
Emvironmental nuisance, cunning hunter or beloved natural icon, the beauty of the various species of this wild creature is certainly not in question. This image collection of seven beautiful fox species, with several captivating photographs to represent each, is definitely worth a look.
