Now for one, just because an animal acts out of what we think is ordinary does not mean that they "can and probably do have rabies". Fox for one are a very curious animal. We have a female with a den on the farm, hse has 3 kits and she is the freindliest dog you can imagine. She will damn near eat out of your hand once she gets to know you. Her kits are always out and have taken to following the 4 wheeler around as if playing tag. The female will follow me on a daily walk through the woods looking wild forage for myself. A fox can an is domesticated to an extent very easily. My personal guess is that this particular fox is a young male kicked out of his home territory and sees these "neat things cruising down his road" ( and it is his road more so than ours) and he wants to play. Please lets not jump to the most horrific conclusion so fast. For most they don't understand the way the animal kingdom works. They aren't as mean and secretive as you think. "wild" animals are just as inquisitive as anything out there. So next time you see or expierence something like this enjoy it and observe the beauty of the wilds of our wonderful world.
