Show deserved reputation brer fox is just about the cleverest animal that trots on four feet he is that way because he just about has to be if he is to stay on this planet lacking size and strength to pull down larger game animals he has to content himself with rats and mice and such small deer and especially with birds including hens at the same time he has to keep clear of larger and more ferocious animals bent on his own destruction the greatest of these is is man if there ever was a stupid fox which is doubtful he and all his offspring were long since ground to nothing between these upper and nether millstones |
