Absolutely cool! We were told during our trip to Churchill this past November that the Arctic Fox were curious. Unfortunately we didn't run into any. We did have several encounters with a Cross Fox and his bride. I understand that may have kept the arctic fox away.

Looks like they loop the same footage twice but no matter, that had to be quite an experience. The fox family as well as most of the cat family are simply gorgeous particularly when young as this kit appears to be. Definitely worth having to replace the lens hood from being nibbled on though in this case it doesn't look like the little bugger did any damage to it.

There was another fox encounter some years ago where the fox came around to the other side of the camera and appeared to be looking at the screen -- I guess the fox was chimping.

Here’s one of a Red Fox and there are other images to see by clicking on the arrows or the images:

I remember a fox in Patagonia(?) that came up to Art Wolfe, as well.
