There have been multiple incidents of gloves and other items going missing at a campsite in Hokkaido.
The culprit has not yet been caught 🦊... *whoosh*

What the camera captured was—an Ezo red fox. The photo perfectly shows it with a glove held firmly in its mouth, trotting away as if nothing happened. While these animals are a common sight in Hokkaido with its abundant wildlife, it's quite something to have the "crime scene" captured so clearly. The fox's brazen demeanor makes this a photo that can't help but make you chuckle.

The post has received comments like, "The culprit is on camera!" "A mischievous little fox..." and "Doesn't look like that glove will fit its little paws..." bringing a moment of joy to many.

This was posted by Shuttle, who transforms into an Ezo red fox and shares content on social media under the theme "A world where beasts are close by." The photo was taken near Cape Soya, Japan's northernmost point. They mentioned that this is a topic they post about every spring, and each time it makes them "feel the arrival of spring, along with finding it cute."

Please note that if you see a fox in Hokkaido, be careful not to approach or touch it to prevent infections such as echinococcosis. Let's watch them quietly in their natural state from a safe distance.
