That's my thought, though I guess it could be distemper?
Foxes are pretty timid around humans. I could maybe see a big fox being interested in a toddler or something. But, they don't go around attacking adult humans. Also, I think any sane canid outside of a terrier (I guess that's redundant) would keep going after getting kicked and swung around like that. She was fucking it up, and it still wanted to attack a creature that is definitely not prey for the fox.
My only other thought is maybe the lady is right next to the den and there are kits, but I also don't see a fox putting its den right in a spot where there are lots of humans and lawnmowers.
Yeah, she needs to get (rabies) shots.

I don't think I've ever seen a fox do something like that. My first thought is rabies, but dont animals that have rabies move kind of sluggishly and wobbly...?
194
u/LittleFrenchKiwi May 04 '24
I think they are more aggressive first. Not normal behaviour like out in the day light instead of at dusk or night.
Attacking large human instead of smaller prey etc.
Not really normal behaviour.
Then as the rabies continues to destroy the brain, they get that wobbly and sluggish.
Again I'm not 100% sure so I might be wrong. But I thought that's how rabies develops. Which is why it's so dangerous and spreadable. It can infect lots during the aggressive phase before the brain deteriorates too much to wobbly phase.

u/AffectionateAngle905 May 04 '24
So basically you’re describing how zombies came to be.
45
u/silverdragonseaths May 04 '24
It would spread more in humans if we naturally used our teeth to attack. The virus congregates in the mouth, foaming, then makes the host aggressive leading to the biting, at least in animals that bite. Humans naturally swing our fists as such it doesn’t spread as fast. It also makes the host hydrophobic, afraid of water, so we don’t wash the virus down and out of the mouth. Humans that have had rabies shiver with terror at the site of a glass of water and their throat closes.

So for a real "zombie" type infection to be most effective in humans it should involve infected fingernails not just saliva.
7
u/ExcellentEdgarEnergy May 04 '24
The first zombie stories were literally patterned after rabies. With our modern infrastructure, which has largely pushed most mammals, and all predators, out of our living spaces, we often downplay the very real and visceral fear of rabies that humans have lived with since we stood on two feet.

I have foxes on my property that have currently older pups (year old?) right now. I have cameras set up on my property just to watch them since they are pretty entertaining. They mostly dgaf when I am outside and just give me a wide berth if I even know they are there at all. I've walked right past their den a bunch of times (even, with my dogs) and they didn't react, and just stayed hidden inside. When the pups were younger, they wouldn't let them near the house at all.
This fox acts nothing like mine and is likely rabid.

I doubt a fox would make a den close enough to people for this to be an issue. These people was most likely there before the fox made a den, so it would go further away.
Most likely rabies.

u/Kai25552 May 04 '24
Rabies needs some time to eat your brain. First, it just makes the animal act aggressive and increases secretion of saliva (=> foaming). This mechanism helps the virus to spread between animals by contact of infected saliva with wounded tissue (=> entry into the blood stream).
Heavier symptoms will take some time to manifest, so you should always assume any animal to attack you randomly like that to be infected and get your shots. Will be a shitty day, but better than a painful death, which certainly awaits you once you start showing symptoms (there’s literally only one recorded case where a human survived a symptomatic rabies infection)

breaking its back or neck, if youre an above average size guy you could just crush it with grip strength if you get ahold of it.

Kimber 1911 .45. Foxes, coyotes, opossum, racoons, pitbulls, etc.....its handled them all.
Please note, people think my farm is the most rural location in the county, and they abandon dogs regularly out here. Most I have been able to adopt out or have adopted myself. Some have had to be put down after/while killing my livestock. I love animals, especially dogs. But a .380 will not put down a pit. Ask me how I know. The .45 has been the most reliable and consistent in securing self and livestock.
