Even in big Cities they are known to thrive
It is by their cunning that foxes survive
Despite trapping and shootings and despite poison bait
On their extinction us humans cannot put a date
Despite habitat destruction and despite everything
The shy and cunning foxes to life they do cling
They kill small endangered species but of wrong they do not know
For to live themselves mercy to others they cannot show
In the wilds of wild Nature the hungry must eat
And a small endangered species can taste very sweet,
By humans never adopted as Animal Gods
But they are survivors against all of the odds
Quite adaptable in big Cities they are known to thrive
And despite persecution they somehow survive.
