Baby Foxes Have A Great Time Playing With A GoPro Camera And End Up Taking Adorable Pictures Of Themselves
When wildlife photographer Victor Cech traveled to Turiec, Slovakia, he intended to create a vlog documenting his time there. Turiec is a lovely location with diverse flora and fauna, featuring at least 300 bird and mammal species, including foxes.
Cech set his GoPro Hero 9 Black in a clearing and left it alone in the hopes of capturing some footage of the locals. He was astonished to find that his camera had been moved when he returned later.
He located the cute perpetrators after analyzing the footage. About 15 minutes after sunset, the camera's motion detection feature was activated by a fox pup sneaking up to the camera.
At first, it leaps away in surprise, then pounces around the camera like a kitten. It quickly grows bolder, nosing the camera and knocking it out of place.
The other pups then join in, making their own fun and batting the camera about. The fox cubs played with the camera for about three minutes, resulting in a video that showcases their curious personalities and playful natures in their natural habitat.
“It is never boring with fox burrows,” Cech says in the video's description. “I tried to set my GoPro with motion detection there, and the result didn't take long.”
Let's take a look at what the camera has captured:
Cech has been taking photos of wild creatures for more than a decade, and in the last year, he has started experimenting with video. He was photographing for the Turiecfoto website on this specific trip.
The goal was “to bring you closer to the mysterious life of these inhabitants, the mountains of Malá and Velká Fatra, meadows, and waters.”
A curious baby fox comes to check out this strange new thing in the hood. And it was a GoPro cam.
Cech's main goals in documenting the region's animal species are to encourage environmental education and responsibility. He continues, "It's wild, it's evolving, it's not steady; it's continuously changing."
It is for this reason that he is passionate about nature and continues to document Slovakia's biodiversity. Visit Turiecfoto and follow him on Instagram to see more of his work.
Victor Cech, a wildlife photographer, left his GoPro in the wild. He was surprised to see cute fox puppies playing with the camera when he reviewed the film. Check out the adorable video:
Foxes are small, omnivorous creatures who think fast and run even faster. They are frequently confused with other members of the Canidae family, which includes wolves, dogs, and jackals.
Their long, narrow legs, lithe physique, sharp noses, and bushy tails set them apart from their kin. These creatures are incredibly friendly and have a lot of freedom in their lives.
They can be found all over the world, including North America, Europe, Asia, and North Africa, and they live in a variety of habitats. Their preferred habitats are mixed landscapes; however, they can also be found in arid deserts and Arctic tundra.
We've always thought these creatures are absolutely charming. And now that we've seen them play, we are convinced of it.
