Oh wow, I’ve actually not heard/seen many recordings of red foxes making these kinds of growl-like vocalisations they are capable of before. Really fascinating footage!
A new (and sadly mangy) fox turned up last night and The Unit was not happy. Managed to capture one of the few vocalisations I've never got on camera before: a growl!
Red foxes don't really growl in the way dogs and wolves do, but an unhappy fox will occasionally make a guttural rumbling sound that's basically the fox equivalent of a growl. It's one of the rarer fox vocalisations to hear so pretty happy to have got it on camera!
This is also quite an interesting piece of footage as the other fox is female and it's pretty uncommon for male foxes to show aggression/hostility towards females. I wonder if it's because she has mange as I have noticed foxes can be more hostile towards mangy ones to try and drive them away.
Why do I love the fried-lipid corporation clown dog, seriously why the fuck have I hyperfixated on this little guy for so long??
This was fun to draw though, so yeshhhh
I produced some studies recently of some captive-bred fur farm red fox colour morphs, ended up liking this loose silver white mark fox I painted :3
I vividly dreamt the other night that I drew this exact fox critter and image, now it is real?? I guess
Even amongst the abstract horrors brought about by the Monarch Swarm in the Post-Silence World, rest is so very important
Look, I know he's from a bunch of crusty VHS cartoons to endorse the fried lipids corporation but I love this dog!!! Sundae!!!
I always love canine characters, even if they're from 40 minute long advertisements (yes I am a silly critter)
The latest edition to my all-time favourite art pieces, omg!!! I adore this!!!
Heinrich Schlitt - The Forest Doctor (ca. 1895)
My half of an art trade with @sjofisk I've been meaning to post, it's their curious silver fox OC Krka! I had a blast painting this foxy.
Please do check out Sjofisk's art, they have some lovely work!! <3
A year ago today, I finished the first episode of my webcomic, titled God Animal.
It is a xenofiction-adjacent story about a pair of close fox friends, named Cat and Dog, attempting to survive the hostile world left behind after a cataclysm, from which a mysterious and destructive force is devouring all that remains. When it seems that all hope of survival is lost, the pair of foxes meet a strange deity-like being, who may hold the key to their survival…
You can read it here (do heed the content warnings before proceeding). Episode 2 has been in the works for a bit, a lot happened to myself and those close to me this year, so it will be done when it is done.
Regardless, I feel happy to have completed the first episode and commemorate the first anniversary of Episode 1. :3
