Foxes
Foxes are starting to slink their way into homes. In 1959, a Soviet geneticist started researching domestication by breeding foxes. A half century later, the work continues in Siberia at the Institute of Cytology and Genetics. Several generations into the project, the foxes currently at the institute act similarly to dogs. They require a significant amount of extra work, but are available to bring home. Still, getting a pet fox isn't as easy as dropping by an animal shelter. These pets cost $8,000, and to obtain one you must be approved by the institute's importer.

This is a remarkable and timely post for the animal lovers among us.The Soviets have had particular success with Gray Fox/Poodle hybrids but many genetecists claim that dogs and foxes cannot be cross bred.I have a Poodle/Gray Fox hybrid that occurred naturally and is now 16 years old.A pet Gray Fox and a pet miniature Poodle living in the same house created a litter of 4 puppies.The fox was the male.3 female puppies,one male and all gray and black.Mine barks like a dog and acts like a dog and weighs 14 pounds.We had her fixed at the appropriate age.Wonderful pet!
I tried to bring a fox home once. My wife made me take her back to the bar.
You see that's the problem with the world today.If God wanted these freaks of nature he would of done it in the beginning,now we got 50/50 in everything.Blacks who think their white,whites who think they are black,males wanna be females,females wanna be males.You see my point here.
