A fox cub desperately nibbles on the ear of its napping mother. This incredibly heartwarming scene has drawn many comments on social media, such as "It's like a puppy!" and "So healing."
Fox Cubs Sticking Close to Their Mother
According to the poster, Kiito, this Kita fox family was living under a farmer's warehouse in Tomamae. The camera captured the adorable sight of the foxes snuggling closely together, never leaving each other's side.
While Kita foxes are known for their golden-brown fur, the cubs' fur is dark and gradually changes to the same color as their parents as they grow. Their innocent, small figures truly resemble puppies.
