People, it just doesn’t GET any better than Tanja A.’s animal photos. Behold this tiny McFoxerson in a riding hat.
See more of this scene here. Hint: scroll to the right to see all three fox photos together…
Arlo R., go Vikings!
Tanja A. does it again!

Meet the McFoxersons!
(trying to say that without saying *that*)
He’s hiding in the last place they’d ever expect to find him. Sly little fox.
Just watched Grizzly Man last night, and disturbing documentary aside, I really decided I must somehow pet a fox! They are just too adorable! Maybe Arlo has an extra…
Whee! Where’s my bleen???
(tosses head, rolls eyes, pops gum) Being, Like, Eeeexcellentest eVAR! …NOT!
how adorable!
i’m stuck on her 459 pages of fabulous pictures!
good lawzy sakes!

OMG! Check out the schnoz snorgling! http://www.fotocommunity.de/pc/pc/mypics/12278/display/12590983
Heyyyyy, …that rollover is subliminal advertisingks.
Meg and Theo- you have outdone yourselves. Here I am doing drudge work, you come and distract me for who knows how long!
Thank you for giving me a great birthday card to a friend by e-mail!
Tanya A. is a monkeytruckin’ BLACK BELT of Teh Qte™. Whoa nellie.
Oh
my
gawd.
So so so sweet an’ anerable, fittin’ in a freakin’ HAT.
If a wee fox can see fit to make snorgles with a riding hat, is world peace too big a stretch?
Can’t we all just get along!??!?!?
Honestly, CO could run Tanja A. photos for a year and not have any shortage of material.
First the Japanese kicked our ass creating cute things, now the Germans are kicking our ass documenting the qte.
All hail our new cute overlords (besides Meg and Teho, of course).
Ah, Tanja Askani. Her day job? Falconer and herding wolfs in a wild animal zoo near Hamburg/Germany.
No joke. She is famous for her knowledge about wolfs and raising wolfs. Not only individual wolfs, but multiple wolf packs.
Here are three wolfs from one of her packs http://www.fotocommunity.de/pc/pc/mypics/12278/display/12667117
eeeeeeeeeeeee! Runs all over room checking all accessories to see if a cute mcfoxersons is inside. snif snif – no cuddly bebeh fox. Pout
Remember the Fox and the Hound and they were friends when they were babies but then they grew up and it all changed?
This was the prequel to that movie.
tracyFlich, not a Fox and a Hound, but a Hound (her dog “Atila”) and a beech marten (called “Mandy”) in some interspecies snorgeling: http://www.fotocommunity.de/pc/pc/mypics/12278/display/9444364
All right? How did this even happen? I hope everyone who follows that link notes this Foxerson coming out of the hat yawning.
Loving the rest of the pics, though.
the link isn’t working…I think cuteoverload peeps crashed their sever!
oopa! I meant “server”
SillyGirl — I think you may be right. (Sorry, FotoCommunity! Wir lieben Sie!)
By the way, I had assumed that black thing that the fox kit was camping out in was a camera bag. But yeah, now that I look closer, it appears to be one of those caps that equestrians use, which makes the fox connection even funnier. (You know, like a fox hunt? Release the hounds!)
oh drats-ipuss! i cant see the photos! server problems.
i want to know how foxie got in the hat! so cute!
aaaa!!! babeh foxeh fuzziness!!!
Dang, I think we killed their server. I can see NONE of her pictures.
Mr. McFoxersons is very cute though.
SillyGirl, I can’t get to the pix either. WAAAAAHHHHHH! I want to see the qte.
Kris et al. — I put a couple of her wolf-cub photos on my Vox, a while back; maybe this will help a little?

Fockshunteeng! YER DOONIT RAWNG!
Trying to see the Tanja Askani stuff and sooo unhappy I don’t know German so I don’t exactly know what’s going on but the pix. I could see were wonderful. ::sigh:: I need a German/English dictionary.
Mary1 — try this: http://world.altavista.com/
Paste the URL in the box under “Translate a web page”, choose “German to English”, then click the (second) Translate button. It’s not perfect, of course, but it should at least put you in the ballpark.
I used this URL http://www.tanja-askani.de/info/?p=61 …and got this:
“NOSE BEAR & DOG
“South American nose bear (Nasua nasua)
“Nose bear “Bonny” and “Lucy” Lueneburger heath are born in the game park. The nose bear nut/mother was still too young and too inexperienced, for the Bruederchen came already each assistance too late. Bonny and Lucy one had to draw up with the bottle and therefore lived her also in the dwelling. After short time they had learned to open their cage. The two arranged a correct chaos: Flowers excavated, which sheets zerrupft, the curtains when climbing torn. They are evenly wild and no domestic animals.
“Hunting dog German wire hair “Attila” always participated and Bonny and Lucy a good friend in such a way found. Today and kuscheln the three still play as if they would be a family.
“In the meantime both girls moved again back in game park Lueneburger heath.
“I wish you much fun when regarding!”
In “American” that first dog is a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon. NEAT dog. http://www.akc.org/breeds/wirehaired_pointing_griffon/index.cfm
I love what the temperament says about him:
The Griffon has a quick and intelligent mind and is easily trained. He is outgoing, shows a tremendous willingness to please and is trustworthy. He makes an excellent family dog as well as a meticulous hunting companion.
Clearly, he is showing his family dog nature.

Thats what happens when you leave your hats lying around.
Oh… dearlord.
I was able to get on ans look at a bunch of her pics.
You peeps should try again, just not all once!
….AND look…..
Apparently preview is there for a reason
That would be pretty darn comfortable as a hat cushion if you ask me.

hamster in an egg!!
Wow! Amazing photography! This lady has a fantastic talent and a serious eye for cuteness! As Steve Irwin knew, one way to promote animal conservation is to make working with the animals–even wild and dangerous ones–entertaining and cute. Kudos to Tanja!
Mein Gott, ist dass nicht drollich fur ein uberzetsung! It’s been translated literally, thus verbs to the finish of sentence are placed. Luneberger Heide is in Northern Germany, in the triangle between Hamburg, Bremen, and Hannover. Beautiful countryside, wonderful old buildings and farmland, great food–my mom’s family is from that area. Friends in Hamburg told me about Tanja A. Absolutely fantastic photos!
How do I get her job? For stherious!

I hurt myself laughing….
It’s the nose. THAT LEETLE TEENSY NOSE!!! I can’t stand it. That and the irony of a fox inside a riding cap…
EHN – want. to. see. Why can’t I see??? waaahhhhh…
“Haha, they’ll never find me here!”
….
“Ok, I’m a skosh tired…maybe I’ll take a nap…”
“zzzzzz”
Wow!! Fox and coatis are all amazingly cute!! I’ve always loved coatis!!
(Ext. Moors, Dusk)
- “Lord Wickham! Lord Wickham! Where could be? The hunt ended hours ago! Any luck, Ted?”
- “Not yet, but don’t you worry, sir, we’ll find him.”
- “Wickham! Wick..” (trips, falls) “What’s this? A skull!? Who could..” (looking about franticly with his flashlight, the beam falling on body parts and hunting pink ripped asunder, finally falling on a riding helmet with a fox curled up inside, his eyes glowing red in the beam.)
- “Dear God..”
- Grrrrr..
- “Th-th-there’s a good little fox..there’s..”
- SHRIEK!!
- “AIEEEEE!!”
Out foxed.
[...and foxed in! - Ed.]
Tanja Askani is simply marvellous. I wish she would do a show on Animal Planet…
Lovely candid shot. All I find is cats in my shoes!
RevWaldo – ?
Oh Noes! The fox got RevWaldo! Ay, in the moorlands, stranger thuns ‘ave been known ta ‘appen. Wickahm’s a luckier one rest ‘iz soul. And Ted? Poor Ted. No tellin’ wot lurks near the boggy moors at dusk…only the fox knows for sure.
OMFG :faint:
Toooo cute.
Gah – too cute.
i actually just got my own riding hat out, a) to see if i had a McFoxersons in there and b) for some idea of the size – he must indeed be teeny
Klever little fox…knowns where last place anyone would look…and what a smart one to underscore how silly it is to want to see hounds tear apart pretty foxes for sport.
