The fox is the hunter, not the huntee Flake! But I did let out an aww at the end. Nature working.

The fox is following the beams! That is an interesting theory.
Ahhhh! (doh Flakes :biggrin2: ) So I should stop the video before the end? (I don't mind Zombies eating humans etc, but put an animal in harms way...? Wusssssy me!) :blush:

If you feel for mice, don't watch. If you know about laws of nature-- then it is as it is in nature. It does show the amzing skills of the fgox, and a tad of science about "beams" and the pull they have on all creatures.

I live out in the "country." We have all sorts of wildlife visits to my yard, including fox, coyote, deer, and bear. On Sunday, the day after the big snowstorm, I saw a coyote doing the exact same thing in the farmer’s field across from my house. It would stand motionless for a time, then launch into a vertical leap and go headfirst into the snow after what I presume was a groundhog (lots of the nasty creatures around here). The display didn’t last too long, and after several attempts the coyote left without it’s prize. I also have a couple of apple trees out back with rotten apples still on them. Also that day a deer was standing on its hind legs trying to get some. I never knew deer could to that.

Somebody must have forgotten to tell it to point north. :)
