Fennec Fox

Can you hear that? I think it’s mum calling from the den, with all my brothers and sisters nipping about, enjoying the moonlight play time. I look forward to scampering home for the hubble puddle of nap time! A fox, like me, in the desert takes advantage of the cooler evenings and my super keen hearing helps me find all the tasty treats, did you know that jelly beans really are jolly? I can hear them giggling near the sand dunes, along with the green grapes, who crack jokes. What? You don’t believe food chats? Well, when you have bionic hearing like me, you’ll hear it too!

Plopping down after a wild night howling at the moon, I need a rest! Since the intense desert heat in the day is far too much to do anything in, it’s much nicer to nap with friends during, the hot heat. So when visitors come by, it’s best to come when the moon is high!

Wander off just a little too far from the den, and who gets in trouble? Me. Yeah, I know I shouldn’t have followed that flutterbye so faraway, but it was so much fun, so here I am now, sitting in the time out chair mum put me in. Ah well, only another 15 minutes more!

Over a decade ago a brave fox took a dare from his buddies and submitted his application to appear on a popular reality TV show. He knew he could win because nobody outfoxes a fox. Not only did he dominate all other contestants with his cleverness and wily behavior, he was also surprisingly good at head-to-head challenges, winning a record-setting number of immunities and rewards. Week after week, as other contestants were eliminated he grew even stronger, building allies and voting blocs. The clever fox always had a convincing reason why someone else had to be voted off, and all the viewers at home wondered why his allies never considered him to be the biggest threat to win the game, and vote him out instead. Sure enough, he made it to the final three, and then received a unanimous vote from the outed contestants, that he deserved the win.

When he returned home he wondered if he could try a similar contest with his friends, since the challenge he was especially good at was archery. He never missed the bullseye! After fashioning a bow and some arrows he went into the woods alone every day to fine tune his skills. Once he decided it was finally time for the archery contest, he made posters announcing the event and put them up everywhere.

On the big day, he was thrilled to see a huge crowd had arrived to watch the games. One by one, the contestants tried to hit more bullseyes and shoot farther than him. His aim was so good he could even shoot one arrow into the previous one! By sundown, he was still undefeated! Year after year, his fame has continued to spread throughout the land and his records are unbroken to this day.
