Description

I had a member comment on the Russian Silver fox's that were raised as pets there. A detail to note--all fox's eyes have an enlongated pupil--- This is Rebel, a Russian Silver. He is in a small zoo that I used to visit. For some reason, this fox liked me and I used to spend several hours with him. He would groom me and guard me from the others. As I would leave, I would look back to see him watching me as long as he could see me. I often wonder, if he were free.............

How interesting. I expect you have read about the longterm Russian breeding experiment. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domesticated_silver_fox

...and just to think for how long all they were seen as was material to make coats for bloody humans... She is better not to be free for that would be an oxymoron... I can feel your soul haunted by the bond which pleads the case for a more perfect world where she could indeed truly be free.
