Description
Terezka, baby female Red fox (vulpes vulpes, liska obecna) from the Czech republicThis photo shows Terezka, when she was curiously watching two silver foxes in the cage. At first, Terezka was meeting them through the fence, because she was too young and small to enter the enclosure. She was looking at them and silver ladies were excited about her, so they got to know each other. When she grew, she joined Tlapka and Certice and now they all live together as friends

I loved that book and also it funny happy end!
