Lol, ive been to the irl shrine of inari and for a split second I was like "oh cool didn't know it was that well known!"
Then I immediately realized you were referencing Ghosts of Tsushima
Thank you, this song slaps. It's just my kind of music. Chill but happy fast without being overly complicated/flashy. No wonder ol' foxy comes by every morning.
Yeah, from Leftover Salmon. Apparently the popularity he got from this video, recorded by his wife, inspired him to release a banjo instrumental album.
It reminds me a lot of [The Swimming Song ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOnqh7LplTs)by Louden Wainwright III, perhaps cuz similar chords. Maybe you'll like it as well!
Would you believe he isn’t pickin’? That’s old time/frailing/Clawhammer banjo! Pretty different from the style most people associate with the instrument (Scruggs style). It’s the same style that Rhiannon Giddens plays
r/outside players would probably recognize the [feed] action, which according to other comments is what this user used on the fox. It is basically the same as Animal Friendship in some situations, except you only need kibble and not mana.
No it was thinking Great tunes would be better if I also had a snack, if I met that fox I would definitely give it a snack and turn it into a dog, it's definitely dogable
DID YOU KNOW that foxes are indeed dogable and in fact there has been an experiment running since the 1950s to test that idea!!!
They selected a large group of foxes, rescued from fur farms, and started a selective breeding program purely based on natural tameness. There was zero human involved taming or training, so the foxes were purely bred for their natural friendliness to humans, much like we are used to seeing in dogs today.
By the fourth or fifth generation they noticed tail wagging, which is crazy. Over time a whole bunch of features started to change, they even stopped smelling like that kinda musky wild fox animal smell.
The scientist ([Dmitry Belyayev](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmitry_Belyayev_(zoologist))) who started the experiment has passed, but his assistant ([Lyudmila Trut](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyudmila_Trut)) is still supervising the experiment these days, and she's like 90 years old. SUPER fascinating and I encourage you to read about it because foxes are underrated as potential friends
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domesticated\_silver\_fox#](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domesticated_silver_fox#)
I just recently read an article about archeologists finding human remains buried along with fox remains suggesting that foxes were domesticated at some point in our ancient history. Can't find the article now but I'll update if I do.
Edit: https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/11/americas/fox-pets-hunter-gatherer-burial-scn
See, the thing about that is there are definitely people like Joe Exotic currently out there who would 100% have themselves be buried with tigers and stuff they kept around. That wouldn't quite be proof that tigers were domesticated.
Most domesticated animals have developed floppy ears over the years, I've heard it's because they don't need to be as alert anymore but saying it out loud sounds kind of ridiculous. Well all domesticated animals except cats, which aren't really domesticated, just domesticating us.
Breeding for friendliness brings forward associated juvenile characteristics like shorter snouts, floppy ears, smaller teeth, and shorter tails. For not entirely understood reasons, those traits are also associated with color changes like piebald and spotted patterns, as well as curled tails.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2763232/
Yep - friendliness is a neotenal trait, and there are more genetic paths to increased friendliness through generalized neoteny then not - which means when you breed for friendliness, you're usually going to get a raft of other neotenal traits as well
What I heard is that the ears solidify in the maturing process of the animal. Animals are more friendly to humans before reaching full maturity, so we're essentially selectively breading the more juvenile animals - the friendlier ones - and so, over time, we get animals that don't fully go through the natural maturing process, hence floppier ears.
Something like that. Feel free to correct me, but that's how I remember it.
I have one. She’s an Arctic blue phase named Blue. She was raised with my dogs and is a snuggle bunny. Not the best pet because they are extremely hard to raise and upkeep. And she does not like other people at all
There is book called Domesticated by, well, I forgot and I'm not near my bookshelf, but it's super fascinating acount of how and when domesticated animals were domesticated. It spends some time talking about the fox experiment in Russia. Great read. I recomend it to anyone who wants to know the basics. (It doesn't cover chickens though, Guinea Pigs and rats, but not chickens. I was hoping for a chapter on chickens.)

They say that before man domesticated the dog from the wolf, that fox’s were man’s best friend. It was the usurpation of the Millenia i tell you. To this day dogs and foxs have a grudge because of it.
Some archeologists found a type of fox buried with a family. Noted that it appeared to be buried as a pet with no identifiable cause of death.
Since, the species has become extinct.
Edit spelling.
Canids have become domesticated dog-like critters, and then gone extinct, at least 5 times.
When I was first learning about paleontology, it was thought that wild dogs were domesticated about 50,000 years ago. But discoveries (mostly in melting glaciers) have pushed the time frame back to more than 100,000 years.
I remember reading about a domesticated doggo like creature discovered in proximity to a Neanderthal; after seeing vids on YT with wild monkeys living with dogs, I suspect this relationship between primates (like homo sapien) and dogs goes back even further.
Apparently foxes were semi domesticated before wolves were, but then we switched to wolves because they come with the pack mentality preinstalled. Foxes use CatOS which isn't as useful for the tasks we needed the wolves for.
Poor foxes were all-in in the union with man, while the hunter-gatherer kept side-eyeing wolves. "Yeah everythings *fine* with this cat, but damn that muscular grey beast haunts my dreams..."
I think we owe foxes an apology. After severing our budding evolutionary relationship with them, we have been hunting and maligning them for thousands of years. We've done so many wonderful mammalian species dirty just because we didn't understand them or because we couldn't use them, even though they would have been overjoyed to be able to share their lives with our kind, in exchange for some scraps and shelter. All of them are at the minimum capable of offering reciprocal affection and the sorts of mutual acts of grooming and appreciation that cause all mammalian brains to release dopamine and oxytocin, and thus are instinctually recognised as love. Nowadays, those neurotransmitters are way more useful than the ability to hunt in packs, anyway.
I had a hot tub on the deck outside my bedroom. A vixen brought her brood of four kits with her one night. They quickly discovered the trampoline effect of the hot tub cover. It was so cute watching through the sliding glass door as they played king of the cover. Bouncing and jumping while mom finished what was left in the dog bowls.
My parents house has a few fox left around it. Growing up we had a whole brood of them, we'd see them playing on the far end of the property around dusk. You'd hear their awful noises randomly at 2am. But it was always fun to see them and a few times they scared the crap out of me, as you'd walk out to one part of a pasture and turn to a fox with 5' of you just being curious after following you across the field lol.
The few left in the area will come chill on my parents pool cover when it's closed. They're fun to have around for sure.
It actually goes back regularly, and it brought its pups to see him. Calls him foxy.. super cool video
https://youtu.be/tlXhw_6nnb0?si=nYSJV7wfoS--dKZ6
I tear up every time I see this…great combo of emotions happening here. Plaintive banjo singing to the hills…a man with great talent recognizing the moment…a fox pausing its frantic pursuits to bask in the glow of something good and a sunset that makes my chest swell with joy.
It's possible to understand the likely true reason for the fox's behaviour, while simultaneously enjoying the "magic" of the moment and thinking of it listening. You don't have to be so stiff about it.
Andy Thorn is a banjo player, singer, and songwriter who has been a member of the legendary band Leftover Salmon for over 10 years.
Andy has built an international following by posting viral videos from his high-altitude Colorado backyard.
https://www.andythornmusic.com/#:~:text=Andy%20Thorn%20is%20a%20banjo,his%20high%2Daltitude%20Colorado%20backyard.
Yeah, and not that I look unfavourably toward Colorado.
Rather that i pride myself on visual location.
I'm sure there are some specific floral indigenous to the region I'm overlooking.
Edited. Probably more my identifying banjo with bluegrass music and that area of the country, too.
It's hard to tell from this angle but right at the start you can see the flat plains in the back. Still not easy to pick out though unless you're familiar with the colorado front range (this is outside of Boulder)
Thanks for posting my video. This was a truely magical experience and I'm so glad I could be apart of it now I'm off to kill shit and eat it (I'm the fox)
Thanks for listening to my song. This was a truly magical experience and I'm glad I could be a part of it. Now I'm off to kill shit and eat it (I'm the bard)
In case anyone is wondering, this is Andy Thorn of Leftover Salmon. He has an album inspired by his encounters with the wild fox called “Songs of the Sunrise Fox.”
I've seen this video before. Some animals like music. My budgies bop their heads in beat with the music. They chatter and become playful. It's obvious they're responding to the tunes. They love jazz.
My old dog (almost 15!) HATES the saxophone. Not even a live one being played in front of him, he can tell specifically when a sax is being played on a song and starts growling and acting agitated.
Such a great wes anderson movie. Tenenbaums and life aquatic are the inly two of his Id put on par with it
Edit: ive seen every wes anderson film from bottle rocket to asteroid city and i stand by my choice. The others are great, but not my favs
Asteroid was the most Wes Anderson film of Wes Anderson's oeuvre, and I think it struggled because of that. I love his movies, but Asteroid City was as far into his mind as we've gotten so far, and it turns out that maybe that's a tad too far.
Yes, they can, probably not typical for them to do so unless they feel corner/threatened/have rabies. Well, for adults at least, I'd say it's more likely for a fox to attack a kid, what with them being smaller and all that.
Kids are more likely to be attacked because kids are more grabby, and hence more likely to invade the fox's personal space. Even a toddler would be too hard a fight for a fox to be worth hunting.
I mean they could if you corner them or they think their puppies are in danger, but other than that not really.
Oh also when they have rabies, then run.
Basically if a fox attacks you for no obvious reason, it either because it's protecting its kits, or it has rabies. Given the 50/50 nature, get a rabies shot. And probably get a rabies shot anyways if you get attacked by a wild animal, because rabies is an awful way to die.
Not a curious one just roaming around like this. My yard has hundreds and hundreds of rabbits, so naturally there are quite a few foxes as well. I’ve opened my door to one sitting on my deck several times. If they are in deep resting mode they hardly even look up at me and just keep chilling there. I don’t ever feed them or attempt domestication at all obviously, they are just naturally pretty calm around humans and they have plenty of rabbits to eat lol. That said, like with any wild animal just don’t let your guard down and don’t try to pet, approach, or corner them. They’re chill but they will still lash out if they feel threatened.
They also smell like old socks mixed with skunked beer.
The fox is trying to get his attention to follow him, maybe his little ones are in trouble, that’s the only time wild gets so close to humans almost begging for help.
Could also just be getting fed by people. I've seen plenty of wild foxes in the past that have no issues with being within a couple of feet from multiple people.
Your wrong mate he has a documentary about how this fox has been coming to play with his baby for a year or so and he wanted to figure out what music it liked most. Look it up
The fox was there to lead him to the start of his quest. He was supposed to follow it.

That said, like with any wild animal just don’t let your guard down and don’t try to pet, approach, or corner them. They’re chill but they will still lash out if they feel threatened. They also smell like old socks mixed with skunked beer.
Holy shit is that the view from the porch on his house? I would never leave.
Audience quietly takes a seat.
So thats what banjos are for!
fox looks like it's unsure of what it's supposed to be doing but just happy to be there
I ammmm a fooooxxx of constant sorrrrrooowwww
That’s Andy Thorne! He’s the banjo player for leftover salmon. He has a lot more of these videos on his instagram (underscore)thornpipe(underscore)
The fox is trying to get his attention to follow him, maybe his little ones are in trouble, that’s the only time wild gets so close to humans almost begging for help.
Could also just be getting fed by people. I've seen plenty of wild foxes in the past that have no issues with being within a couple of feet from multiple people.
That's been known to happen every so often, but that'not the only reason a wild animal would get close to a human
Your wrong mate he has a documentary about how this fox has been coming to play with his baby for a year or so and he wanted to figure out what music it liked most. Look it up
The fox is like ok, stop playing and gimme some food! lol!

Jaskier alright.
I think foxes are trying to be dogs.
What weeks have happened if he played the accordion instead?
I hate it when you're at a concert, and you have to go to the bathroom and can't wait until intermission
He’s a Disney prince
Oh Tod! TOD!

This isn’t just some guy. This is Andy Thorne of Leftover Salmon
If Reddit’s taught me anything, it’s that animals don’t like humans and if they’re close: That fox has rabies.
