    Domesticated foxes, apparently a Russian scientist domesticated foxes within 60 years or so by selective breeding for innate friendliness and you can buy one for about 9,000 bucks and have a domesticated fox.

    Big raccoon as a pet dive today also, but the fox was the most recent dive.

        Nobody mentioned their stinkiness, and there was lots of nuzzling and hugging in the videos, so that might just be a byproduct of wild stinky animals, rather than domesticated less stinky animals.

        Although I have not seen a single video about washing a fox yet!

        Sounds like it’s time for some more research
