Fox Village in Zao Japan! 蔵王きつね村・kitsune mura

Keep backing up. That's exactly what she asked you not to do. His legs are so long, and his tail is so fluffy! Today we’re at Fox Village! It's a gorilla! It's like gorilla village. It’s a village slash zoo for foxes that you can go inside and play with more than 200 foxes for only 1,000 yen. Can I touch it? I can’t even believe a place like this really exists. It was even better than I thought it was going to be. How excited are you on a scale of 1 to 10? 36! How about you? 5,000! Oh my god. 10/10 When you first enter, you’ll be in an area with cages where there are newly born baby foxes who are being taken care of by their mamas. There’s a fox hospital in this area, and if you want to, you can hold a fox here! Once the babies separate from their mom they join in one of these big adolescent pens where you can watch them running back and forth and playing with each other, or sleeping in the most adorable giant fox ball EVER. That is literally a pile of foxes. I can't even count how many there are there. And then, finally, they’ve graduated to the main fox village, which is an open area of more than 18,000 square feet filled with fox houses, a fox hotel street- It's like a cat tower, but a fox tower. -a fox shrine, a fox feeding platform- How did that one get in? It got in when I was getting out. Oh. Now it doesn't want to come out. "Please don't let the foxes in." I know. Come here... He's just excited to be in there because they're not normally allowed in there, I guess. Here foxy! Yay! We saved the day. -and plenty of nooks and crannies for the foxes to enjoy playing around in, exploring, and digging fox holes. The foxes were all really well-behaved. They seemed almost like they were half-cat/half-dog. They were all born and raised here, so that might explain some of it, but they were even more domesticated than I would have expected. You can buy treats for them, which come in plastic bags, and as soon as they realize you have treats, they will follow you everywhere. Oh. I just made a noise with the food. He noticed. Hi. Sorry for tricking you. I'm not allowed to feed you here. I'm sorry! And if you don’t go feed them quickly enough, some of them get kind of grabby. He's vicious! Come on, no no! Come on, ow, ow, he's gonna kill me! He's like strangling me. They did this thing a lot where they open their mouths and squeal at each other, which we assumed was a show of dominance, but I’m not a fox scholar so I can't say for sure. Which one won? You? Apparently if you don’t lock down your belongings carefully enough, they’ll run off with your stuff and try to bury it. He's trying to steal it and run off with it. You're so chubby. Oh, the lens cap... Awww. So be careful, and make sure they don’t get a hold of anything they can choke on. And can we talk about the noises they make, because it’s so adorable it’s killing me. What does the fox say? They're very quiet. Nevermind. They're not. Not at all. They mostly seemed chubby and happy so it was a really fun place to visit. All in all I highly recommend this place. Thank you for watching, and I hope you guys can all visit fox village one day, too. Up until now I was like, I don't really care about foxes. But now I'm gonna walk out of here a changed man.
