#1 - General report.
NEWS FLASH: Foxes in our town!
In recognition of World Wildlife Day, which was March 3rd , I thought we’d take a look at the growing population of foxes that are in the Karakura, Japan area. These beautiful and naturally cautious animals are widespread throughout Japan, in rural and suburban areas as well as in parks. The habitat the red fox prefers are woodland edges along open fields, meadows, and lawns. Red foxes seldom seek shelter in holes or dens during winter, preferring to sleep in the open with their bushy, well-insulated tails curled over their noses to keep them warm.
Red foxes are small, agile carnivores belonging to the same family as the dog, coyote and wolf. They are intelligent predators with extremely sharp senses of sight, smell and hearing (a fox can hear a mouse squeal from about 150 feet). The red fox is 22 to 25 inches in length, with an additional 14- to 16-inch tail and weighs 8 to 12 pounds. It has long, reddish-orange fur slightly darkened on the back, black ears, legs, and feet, and a long, bushy, white-tipped tail. They are swift runners and can swim if needed.
Foxes breed between January through March. It’s not uncommon to see a fox with her kits residing under a shed or deck where they feel safe and secure. Fox litters generally average between 4 or 5 pups and needless to say they are adorable at play.
Foxes are opportunists when it comes to feeding. This means they will eat whatever is most easily obtained. Foods include squirrels, mice, rats, rabbits, woodchucks, opossums, porcupines, small domestic cats, chickens, insects, squirrels, game birds, songbirds, bird eggs, fruits and grasses. Foxes also are scavengers, feeding on road-killed animals and winter kills; and cache uneaten food by burying it in loose earth.
Occasionally, you might see a limping fox. Foxes can easily become injured in the course of their daily treks around their established territory. There’s no harm in helping a limping fox by supplementing their food sources with a tray of tinned dog food, an egg, and some peanuts until the fox heals. Be sure to place the tray a good distance from your house, preferably at the edge of a wooded area.
A word of caution: although foxes appear to be timid and sometimes friendly, they are wild animals. Earlier this month, March 2024, a person in Delaware County was bitten by a fox while walking their dog. The fox was reported to have appeared sick. Most wild animals, especially foxes, are afraid of humans and usually, they get scared off by us. People in the area were urged to be aware of their surroundings.
All said, I think we can agree that foxes and their kits enrich our wildlife within our neighborhoods and make life a little more interesting!
#2 - Interview. It's important to have well-rounded questions. Create your own interview with ten questions or more. And answer them yourself.
[ ! ] Ryu would spot someone on the side of the road near a family store. Itching for an interview, he’d walk over and politely ask if he wanted to be a part of conducting an interview. The man happily said yes, and Ryu got straight to work. [ ! ]|
Ryu: Alright good sir, may I get your name, age, and occupation?
Poole: Sure! My name is Poole, I’m currently 18 years old, and my occupation is being a high school student.
Ryu: Perfect. How are you doing on this fine evening? Anything exciting that occurred?
Poole: Ah, just walking around getting my steps in for the day, nothing crazy.
Ryu: That’s nice to hear! Now, I believe it's time for the main attraction, the question.How do you feel about foxes in the ecosystem?
Poole: Foxes? Was not expecting that… But I say they're alright, nice to come by once and awhile.
Ryu: Yeah… Did you have any crazy experiences with them? If so, can you name me a time?
Poole: Hmm…- OH! Yeah there was this one time a fox stole my shoe in the forest. I was just taking a stroll and a baby fox came out from the bushes and attached itself onto my shoe. I tried to get the fox off without hurting the poor animal, but it happened to bite my shoe off, then run off with it…
Ryu: Well… Okay- that's a really crazy story Sir. Did you ever get your shoe back? Or is it just gone forever?
Poole: Well actually- I just followed the baby fox until he led me back to its home… But the mother was there and she was not happy in the slightest to see me. So sadly I did not get my shoe back since I kinda got scared and ran away…
Ryu: Understandable. Adult foxes are quite the beast once they get aggressive. It’s best to run in any sort of situation. Have you ever read any foxes articles or ever been asked questions about foxes?
Poole: No actually, this is my first time ever really talking about foxes on this deep of a level. It really opened my mind about foxes and honestly encouraged me to learn more about such animals.
Ryu: I’m so glad that I could inspire an interest in foxes. It really warms my heart that my interviews could do such a thing. What interests do you have at the moment, if you mind me asking?
Poole: My other interests consisted of dogs and cats. It's weird how all my interests correlate with animals… But hey, it must be my calling?
Ryu: You can say that again. Have you ever considered working in a career that focuses around animals, and possibly foxes?
Poole: Hm, now that you mention it, in the past I did. I wanted to work as a vet but I wanted to explore my options before settling onto one career.
Ryu: It seems like you were made to work with animals. Always remember that animal careers are endless and there could be one that you would enjoy over the other. Now, you mentioned veterinarian, correct? Do you have any family members or friends that work as a vet?
Poole: No actually. The reason that sparked my interest was because I was watching a tv show and an ad popped up showing how veterinarians work and what they do in their day to day life. It’s a silly reason, but it’s my reason.
Ryu: No reason is a silly reason, man. I think it’s wonderful how that came to be. Have you done any research about becoming one and what type of education you need to become one?
Poole: Yes, I have done plenty of research and I think that's where I want to go for my career I believe. I want to help animals and know that's one of the best ways to help animals in need.
Ryu: Indeed, and I’m so glad you want to help out the community in such a way. You Sir, are truly remarkable. But I do sadly think it;s time we wrap up this interview, can;t keep you here for too long. It was a pleasure speaking with you and hopefully we can talk again. I am truly thankful you agreed to this interview, thank you so much.
Poole; It’s no problem man, and I loved every second of this. It was really swell talking to you and I had a great time personally. Please if you ever need any more interviews, I’m the guy you should ask. Peace out man, and I hope you have a field day with this interview.
[ ! ] Ryu then walked away from the stranger while waving goodbye. This interview turned out to be a wholesome moment between the two, causing a great interview to be formed. [ ! ]
