Rescued fox screams with excitement after meeting new friend!

We recently had two fennec foxes surrendered to the rescue, today we are introducing them! It went even better than we could have imagined.

[@Kym816]

I didnt realize they were so small. They are absolutely adorable

[@moonlitegirl72]

Well that's probably the cutest thing I'll see all day😊😊

[@unseelie63]

They're the smallest of all the foxes,and I agree completely,they're adorable!

[@viperdemonz-jenkins]

same

[@MaksymMinenko]

Yeah, but hyperactive, and can probably destroy a flat in a couple of hours if left unattended... :)

[@Reptile_Gecko]

@@MaksymMinenko definitely, foxes aren't dogs or cats despite any similarities, they basically NEED an enclosure inside or outside.

[@Oppy1978]

What a joy to take a break at work and watch those little cuties running around! Thank you for sharing!

[@14isoldenough]

Thats me right now.

[@KeithSansevere]

Omg...those ears. They are adorable. They definitely have a case of the zoomies for sure.

[@kiri101]

I'm so glad you're building them a bigger enclosure after this temporary one; dignified lives require space, and it will help the social bonds between animals.

[@TalonID]

My good friend Lyn Hall saved the Fennec Fox species from extinction. He breed them on his small ranch in Santa Rosa Valley-CA. As he grew their population, he provided them to many zoos. At his death, he had a funny little one that just loved him - "Dog". He was an amazing man. His proudest achievement outside of his family was winning the Audubon Award for his work and expertise of pigeon. He had nearly 200 birds in his aviary. The world needs more men like Lyn Hall.

[@johnlombardo7816]

that is awesome! they are so cute, they deserve their space on this massive land as well!

[@steelspark115]

I have watched this probably at least fifteen times and those two foxes yipping and chasing after each other......it never fails to make me smile. Much success to you and Gabby on your new venture Chris! I can't wait to see more of this journey.

[@Jdrunnin]

I just love the huge ears on the tiny fox, very funny and cute looking

[@tammyramey3219]

Dont you wish you had half of their energy, like wow lots of energy.

[@catllionare]

Omg they are soooooo cuuuuuute 😍😍😍😍😍 I'm dying of cuteness overload! Would love to hear their rescue stories too. You guys are amazing for helping all the animals. Angels on earth.

[@FloridasWildest]

They were both surrendered by their owners, that could no longer care for them!

[@ricci8497]

Always nice when a owner realises they can no longer care for a animal and do the right thing and surrender them to people who can do instead of dumping them somewhere or worse.

[@2101case]

Besides the cuteness overload, their reflexes are impressive.

[@leoberg118]

I've spent the day having to write a mentally draining essay on my chronic ADHD, so watching this is perfect. Thank you.

[@carriegibson2202]

Dizzy here too, that tail wag! Love it! Thanks for all you guys do for animals!

[@Budini67]

OMG! cuteness overload! She is so happy to have a friend!

[@indyreno2933]

The Fennec Fox (Fennecus zerda) is a small dog species native to Northern Africa, it is the world's smallest dog species alive today and one of the six extant species of the genus Fennecus, the other five are the Bengal Fox (Fennecus bengalensis), the Blanford's Fox (Fennecus canus), the Ruppell's Fox (Fennecus rueppellii), the Pale Fox (Fennecus pallidus), and the Cape Fox (Fennecus chama), members of the genus Fennecus are known as "dwarf foxes" due to their usually small body size or "elf foxes" due to their usually long or large pinnae, Fennecus is the second largest genus of dog after Canis.

[@kymberlysteiger8125]

I could watch them all day long! They are absolutely precious! Thank you for this video, my soul really needed it!

[@FloridasWildest]

You are so kind

[@RoyaltonDrummer922]

I love Fennec Foxes and am overjoyed to see them so happy ❤️

[@Linda-uo8hh]

I'd say the introduction went very well. I think they're going to he very happy together in their new enclosure. Thank you so much for taking these super cute foxes in ❤

[@trixiepickle8779]

Tails wagging, ears up. What a joy to watch. Absolutely love them. thank you for sharing.

[@sarahlewisphoenix4951]

Cutest darn things ever!! Love Fennec foxes, so glad you guys are able to give these sweet rescues a happy and loving home!

[@janicewilliams966]

They are so tiny! Love the cute little sounds they make!

[@moon-ud8tq]

Boy, they are fast and dizzying watching them go round and round and round.... ; they chirp, yelp and so adorable that wagging, thumping tail ❤👍💙

[@davep153]

They are fast as anything I have seen. Beautiful animals.😁

[@paulshelley8132]

Thanks!

[@phycobionic1799]

We need a live cam set up in there. I could watch them every day!

[@selinamattocks]

How gorgeous are they, thanks for making my day ❤

[@SharonRaeRyan]

Theyre so cute! Plus, I bet even this temporary enclosure with species appropriate substrates is so much better than how they were living as pets. Plus they get a best friend now! ❤❤❤❤

[@dl7596]

TheLeamondrop, "with species appropriate substrates".

[@fransthefox9682]

​@@dl7596Fennec foxes live in very sandy areas too. They are spread across most of the Sahara desert.

[@veranet99]

Nobody has any business being this cute. My god they're like Pokémon!

[@kelseywilliams9616]

They are so cute! Seeing them running around and talking makes me smile! They are so happy!

[@0blivvy8]

Aww they're too cute together and so happy! They definitely look like they'll be besties. I think it's also a great sign that they shared snack time and there was zero food aggression or possessiveness. Great job on the enclosure and the introduction!

[@singlewhitefemale1707]

Fell in love with these little guys back in the 80's I have 10 acres and wanted to get a pair. Was working on my Wildlife permit hours here in Florida when the Zoo I was doing them at suffered a horrible incident that left the owner in critical condition, his wife was forced to close the Zoo due to funding, and re-home most of the animals to different rescues and sanctuaries. His Zoo consisted of rescued, surrendered animals and ones with special needs. It was truly a beautiful place. I'm too old to keep these now but still find them fascinating little creatures ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@kati8359]

Love at first sight

[@susanmartin3762]

I would LOVE to live in your new enclosure! It's so pretty and clean!! Damn you are SO VERY GOOD to those in your care ❤

[@MAMAVIV1002]

My first trip to the Bronx zoo in 1981, first grade, and I saw these guys and absolutely fell in love!! ❤

[@Lonesome__Dove]

They're working it out. He's just showing his dominance. That was a GREAT introduction. There was no aggressiveness or violence at all. So adorable especially right at the beginning when they did the twirl dance.

[@dl7596]

@@dl7596asper usual :)

[@deboraharmstrong3002]

..watching the foxes flash by over and over and over and over.... Are you SURE there's only two?

[@garymcmullin2292]

truly lifts the heart to see such happiness, great job you are doing!

[@karenthomas2302]

Wowzer how did they not become dizzy as heck all that speed from their little feet running, crazy. But they seem to be happy together, as well as more hides will give them even more comfort totally awesome for their fun. Tfs

[@valariemeltzer2553]

Totally rewarding to see your work paying off through the happiness and excitement as you introduce each animal to their new forever homes. Love it.

[@reneetibbetts4813]

OMG cuteness overload! I can say I'm dizzy😳 Thank You Chris and Gabby for taking on these unwanted animals and giving them Great Care and Love👏this is A Lot to take on with just moving and trying to get proper facilities for all your animals already. You two ROCK and I hope your plans come to fruition sooner than later You two deserve it for all you do. God Bless🙏

Fennecs are beautiful.

[@clistiarobinson34]

You guys are so amazing for everything you do and the animals are so stinking cute

[@kingjsolomon]

I melted when he brought the female in, I knew how small they were but she was so tiny. So much fun to watch them.

[@normalnorma4974]

You've done amazing with their enclosure. They are so cute, that noise😆. What energy they have whizzing around. ❤❤

[@jenn1234]

Great video guys! Those foxes are adorable 🥰 and I almost teared up when she saw him and was so excited 🥹. You guys are doing amazing things for animals and are living my dream. Their temp enclosure is awesome and I can’t wait for an update after they have settled in. Keep up the AMAZING work!!! 😄💙🐬🐍🐊🫶🏼

[@KaiTakamatsu]

This was the best thing I've seen all week! Grinning ear to ear watching them run back and forth and around. I'm so happy you guys were able to fulfill your dream of making a sanctuary and providing a gorgeous, comfortable, and abundant home for all these beautiful animals! Also, look forward to more videos and adventures : ) ~cheers

Just fantastic

[@shawncosmos5431]

Amazing how quick they bonded…

[@johnlombardo7816]

they are so freakin cute! their little squeaks are adorable too!

[@edgarsnake2857]

Fennecs take fox rascality to a whole different level. They've started their relationship at 80 miles an hour. It seems like they like each other.

[@EmanuelVieiraEng]

Cuteness overload!! 😊 These foxes are amazing. Thank you for the video.

[@FloridasWildest]

Thank you too!

[@cya2163]

They're beautiful...

Wonderful Video! They were So Excited to have a New friend Especially of their own Species!!

[@LavenderLushLuxury]

You guys are doing such amazing hard work, Your property will be awesome beautiful Fox's...!!! Is this animal sanctuary going to be more, Bird, Crocodilian, and Reptile focused or are you planning on having other animals like, Rescue horses Or Farm Animals? 🦊💖💕

[@FloridasWildest]

Chris and I know nothing about farm animals. I think we will probably have one or two more pigs, I would love one or two cows, but this is mostly an exotic and crocodilian sanctuary. Not a lot of farm animals. Who knows though!!🥰

[@kelleyhawk6595]

That is the BEST introduction EVER!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Kgilp]

Y’all need a TV show

[@MojoPup]

Actually seems like a pretty good match. Both are able to hold their own.

OMG Love this but make me dizzy for sure love it thanks so much for sharing with us

The female is very excited and playful. This looks like she is telling him I like you.

[@sarahmoorcroft8826]

Oh my heart 💜 that is the cutest. So happy for them to have each other!

[@airmanma]

Wow!!!! They are the cutest!!!!!

[@wolfcl0ck]

Two really big things about this video: 1. They chased each other. And it wasn't just "the older one started chasing the younger one after she got tired and never stopped." They both consistently took turns chasing each other. 2. Neither of them were defensive or attacked one another when getting treats. I think those two things confirmed that they were just incredibly happy to be there and have another friend.

[@justb4769]

That was the best introduction ever!

[@edwardlin2941]

goood people doing good things, thank you

[@inarifox3113]

My favorite animal!

The Fennec Fox is the cutest little wild canine!! I had a Velociraptor (Basenji/Pomeranian mix) that looked like a Fennec Fox. Emmi was her name, & she was the absolute best Little!!

[@zoomerboomer6834]

Too cute! So much energy in the introduction. Reminded me of the cartoon Tasmanian Devil, an absolute whirlwind. Good luck to the new couple.

[@susanamagalhaes1839]

They are sooooo fast. And sooooo cute❤❤❤

What sweet little big-eared cute little foxes. And how sweet they play together - pictures for animal lovers! Also the feading scene out of the hand... sooo sweet. :-)
