I caught this Fox hunting in Grand Teton National Park (near Chapel of the Sacred heart) early December 2015. He was right off the side of the road when we were driving past and noticed the fox listening intently. When we pulled up next to him, he didn't loose his concentration and shortly after pounced and caught his dinner. After finishing eating, he continued on the side of the road completely ignoring us. I removed the audio because you could only hear our excitement within the car instead of the true silence of the scene.
I knew a border collie who executed this same maneuver, for which fox are famous, whilst hunting mice under the snow. Amusingly she was red-and-white and small children on the trail would sometimes whisper to their adult, "Mama! She looks like a fox!" youtu.be/MIB4tYsGju4
