a short for Fox lovers

I love it! it is a great short and one of my favorite cartoons from Chuck Jones' early years of directing at Warner Bros. (Chuck Jones is my favorite animator,along with Max Fleischer), and I love foxes; but you know I thought there is no such thing as a silver fox I thought they are mystical,fantasy creatures like flying-horses,dragons,mermaids and such; but I was wrong.

I love how the fox is depicted in a very effective, sinister silhouette as he sneaks up on an unsuspecting farmhouse (That was great stuff!); and I love the escape scene too, Execellant work, Mr. Jones! we'll miss you.
