Frolicking Baby Foxes Caught on Trail Cam in California (Video)

50 Campfires

The Bureau of Land Management California captured adorable trail-cam footage of baby foxes (called kits) playing near the den site and shared it to social media for everyone to enjoy. In the video, six little kits run from bush to bush. They frolic a bit, then run out of the camera’s view.

“While you were sleeping, the foxes played!” wrote the Bureau of Land Management California in a post on X sharing the footage. “Captured on a trail cam near the Goodwin Education Center at Carrizo Plain National Monument, this footage shows a den site with a family of kits. These small, federally endangered foxes make moments like these special.”
