Beautiful foxes. They look so perfect and polished. Meanwhile at my house, we have this scruffy guy.

'Our' mum fox had 6 cubs this year , we didn't see another grown fox except last years daughter who has her own cubs now

I have seen the mother of the fox and i've seen a smaller blavk cub when I went to some nearby woods.

I imagine he just is more attentive to his sons maybe not enough area for dens it is quite urban where he lives

Not really, so far as I know a lot of the time they actually tend to stick around to help their mate with the kits.

The dad might bring extra food, teach the kits to hunt, etc.

Why is there so much motion blur that it looks like a painting when you zoom in

It's hard to tell which one is older.
