Meet the Foxes

Having had my own ups and downs with the town fox from seeing a young family of foxes grow up across from my home to my childhood pet rabbit "disappearing" I found this channel 4 documentary quite interesting.

"This modern day fairytale uses footage of dozens of foxes and archive film to reflect the typical experience of urban foxes in Britain and tell the story of a year in the life of a virtual fox family...
- Miss Fox and her four cubs, Naughty, Lazy, Sickly and Timid the vixen - as they try to survive on the tough streets of London.

The film follows the fictional fox family as they eke out a living feeding on rubbish left out by their two-legged neighbours and occasionally getting into trouble by making a mess, creating a racket, having sex in public and, worse still, feeding on things they shouldn't.

Part wildlife film and part social commentary, Meet the Foxes offers a fresh perspective on the clash between nature and the increasingly urbanised UK." - http://www.channel4.com/programmes/meet-the-foxes/episode-guide/series-1/episode-1
