Four Baby Red Fox Cubs Caught On Camera in Southeast Minnesota

I did not grow up with wildlife near me.  Finding a worm was a big deal.  In fact, I can probably count on one hand how many times I've seen a fox.  And I know for a fact that I've never seen a baby fox!

One of my co-workers was in the right place at the right time the other day because in front of him on a golf course were four baby foxes playing.

I know - they aren't called "baby foxes".  They have another name because for some reason we like to overcomplicate simple things.  What a baby fox is called wasn't really in my repertoire so to ensure I was sharing the correct details with you, I looked over on Wikipedia to see what the official name for a baby fox was.  I didn't realize this but just so you know, a baby fox is called a cub, pup, or a kit. #TheMoreYouKnow

If you need a smile, you can see a glimpse at the cubs' cute factor for yourself in the video my co-worker made while he was perfecting his golf swing.

Do Foxes Attack Humans?

In case you are wondering if a fox is a danger to be around, according to Wikipedia, it is not common for a fox to attack a human.  However, many humans consider a fox to be a pest due to the fact that they can feast on small livestock and poultry, like chickens.
