Cute Fennec Fox vs. BIG BALLOONS! Too Scary for Popping?

[@Taurevanime]

Djinn is smart and learned which part of the balloon doesnt make it pop so he can move it to where he wants, showing off that natural hunting instincts fennecs have for going after scorpions and the like.

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

That's true! He always seems to know which part of the insects he can safely hold onto and which part bites or stings. To Djinn, it's like 99% of a balloon will "bite", hahahaha 🤗🥰

[@olladypaddlin8891]

He's such a funny little boy. I love the way his little butt goes shooting backwards up in the air when his balloon pops. He gave me the giggles for ages.

[@George89999]

That sure is pretty bold for the little guy! I love the way he was both cautious and determined at the same time. 🤣

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

His natural behavior is to be scared, but we have shown him that that's not necessary. He became more confident and even a little daredevil 🥰

[@George89999]

@@DjinnTheFennecFox I do think that he enjoyed popping the balloons even though he was cautious about it.

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

@@George89999 I think so too! We were very surprised to see him having so much fun with loud noises. We have metal plates to cover up a part of the garage floor. When you step on those, they shift, echoing metal on metal very loudly. So we never step on them. Djinn, on the other hand... he thinks that sound is beautiful and constantly walks over those plates "cloinck, bang, cloinck!" 😂

[@George89999]

@@DjinnTheFennecFox It is probably a bit like how a human child likes to bang on things just to make noise. 🤣

[@karynsztabaluk1479]

I do have to say Djinn is one of the chillest Fennecs I've seen because that is usually not the case with alot of them. While they can be very sweet and loving companions, they do tend to be a bit more skittish and can be a challenging pet to have for other reasons as well. Owning them is NEVER to be taken lightly and most definately not for the irresponsible or uncommitted. People get to impulsive because of the cuteness factor and don't think it through about all the work involved. That being said I can see you love him very much and have taken alot of care in raising him.

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

Thank you! Indeed, it's most likely that a fox, any fox, will take up alllll your time. Otherwise they will stay or become wild, bitey, insecure, skittish... With lots time, patience and consistent training, you'll be able boost your fox's confidence, make him curious instead of afraid, and turn him into a little, loving daredevil. However, there will always be moments where a fox is still a fox and will bite you or dig his way through your couch. Video recording and editing takes a lot of time, but I'm trying to provide as much insight about fox ownership as possible. I've still got lots of things to show to possibly future fox owners! Cute as well as non-cute videos 😉

[@karynsztabaluk1479]

@@DjinnTheFennecFox yes that is correct. I volunteered for a rescue group many years ago and it was so sad to see how many dumb people surrendered these animals because they thought they just wanted a cool pet and didn't consider the work involved especially with reds and arctic foxes. People have to realize they're not your average domesticated pets

I love his courage at taking on all those balloons. The slow motion shot where you can see the ripples of air go up his face is pure gold! You can almost here is thoughts too. "Bane of my life! I will see you all you round fiends dead before the sun sets on this day!"

Very brave little animal. Even didnt close his eyes when ballon exploded.

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

Don't ever show the balloons your fear! Hahaha!

[@nalasimba]

Ooops! I have just noticed a description of Djinn below the video. I was worried, I must admit, but was afraid to ask. Thank you for setting our minds at ease. 👌👏🤐🤗😁😻🦊🐾🦴🐛🥰😘💐

[@dragonskunkstudio7582]

That attacking scary venomous scorpions instinct in him applied to scary loud balloons.

[@DC-gi7xh]

I noticed the way he tried to get closer to a balloon. It's almost the same way like it does when it's attacking a scorpion

I dont want the shirt, I want their Fennec. hahah j/k :D Ill be happy with just a shirt. You are so blessed to have such a gorgeous happy well adjusted little angel fox!! Blessings to him and your happy family!

[@skywhitaker5585]

Though he definitely had fun, I can't help but wonder how the balloon popping will affect his hearing in the long term. But then, he might not have this kind of sound exposure very often.

[@grigris7755]

If that sounds loud to us, what must have it sounded like to him. 🥺

[@ecbst6]

All along the KZbins, the foxes chase the thumbs up, give one some balloons to play with, POP goes the fennec!

[@homehelpheart7440]

It was so funny watching how scared he was of the balloon busting but also how obsessed he was with busting more. The other thing that amazed me was the slow mo towards the end when he bit into a balloon and it popped. The percussive wave that resulted and washed over his fur was really amazing! Gotta have Djinn vids in my life! ❤

It's cute that he thinks that balloons are something he can hunt on :)

[@peterarntson4940]

Minefield of balloons.

[@Jimfoxyboy]

Wow, not quite the reaction I was expecting. Then again, realizing he was the cause of it blowing up probably just encouraged him. Them poor fennec ears though.. probably not something you'd wanna do too frequently with him.

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

Well, he killed all those poor balloons already; no more left 😉 But would he really go on and pop them if it would hurt his ears that bad? I don't know... He'd already lost a bit of interest in them, so I threw them away now. I do need to find him new things to play with, regularly. At the moment, he spends a lot of time in the kitchen: smelling and tasting (safe) food. He likes to discover new things, keeps him entertained 🥰

[@Jimfoxyboy]

​@@DjinnTheFennecFox He'd probably be too wrapped up in the hunt to really know what happened. Fennecs can hear insects wriggling around under the sand with their ears. Popping balloons can be louder than a firecracker up close. Probably for the best that popping balloons didn't become one of his favorite past times. Of course, anything to do with food, will always be interested in, I bet. At least both of you are keeping each other busy, trying to think of new things to do. 🦊💕

I so dig the end shot of the tail wag. And the balloons, hilarious.

[@cynthiadeleon2735]

Awww he is soooo ADORABLE!! LOL

[@JROCKTC]

I will always love Djinn!! But, my cat had fun with balloons, just like Djinn. Sadly, when my cat popped a balloon, a small piece of the popped rubber ended up in his throat. He started choking, I couldn’t get it out, and within a couple minutes, he died right in front of me. He couldn’t breathe .😭😭. I have now learned that babies and young children have died the same way. Please, EVERYONE BE AWARE. Some things look fun and harmless, but in one second, a tiny piece of popped rubber from a balloon can be life altering. Love all of you!🤗🥰😘❤️💕

[@DjinnTheFennecFox]

Wow, that's very sad... I can imagine how that could happen, indeed... Thank you for your warning! I'm sorry to hear it comes from your personal experience though :(

[@nalasimba]

OK, so he's a brave little lad! But, what about his ears? Put simply, we humans are strongly advised not to listen to too loud music since it can irreversibly ruin our hearing. Now, given that information, and what with Djinns extra huge radar ears, presumably to pick out the slightest sound, I would worry about giving him loud bangs to play with. However funny this is, please consider a quieter toy. I apologise in advance for my preaching, but I have grown to love this little fellow from your wonderful videos! 🥰🦴🐾💐🐛🦗🤐🤗🤔😱

[@the-chillian]

Bear in mind that the large ears are not for more efficient hearing, but for thermoregulation of a tiny body adapted to living in a hot desert. His body adjusts its temperature by increasing or decreasing blood flow to his ears, which then radiate either more or less excess heat. While their hearing is quite good, it's not any more sensitive than that of, say, my cats, who can also hear prey moving underground.

[@nalasimba]

@@the-chillian Hey, thanks for the explanation! I'm sure you can forgive me for worrying? 😘

[@the-chillian]

@@nalasimba Of course! But he seemed to be having fun here. Animals aren't like us, and aren't stupid enough to keep doing something that will hurt them like deliberately expose themselves to damaging noise levels. That seems to be a strictly human habit.

Pls don't give him any more balloons.

Seriously stupid those giant ears are way to big and sensitive for such a loud noise! If you are going to have an animal channel then please take proper care of your little baby!

[@toffeesmom0194]

John Hamlin his big ears are for heat regulation

[@johnhamlin7055]

@@toffeesmom0194 yes but of course they would be extremely sensitive to sound because of their size. You should not intentionally create loud sounds around your fox. Go ahead and check with an expert.
