Under the snow, insulated from the wind and cold, is a network of tunnels inhabited by mice and voles. This red fox can’t see them, but he can hear them moving. Diving nose first through the snow’s surface, the fox searches out a meal.

How funny this smart fox!!!! Absolutely great!!
Thanks PBS!
What a fantastic episode of Nature! It’s perfect for the holidays and my son and I enjoy watching this clip over and over again! Thank you, PBS!
My son and daughter could not stop laughing watching the segment during the show. Their anticipation while the fox was prepping for dive was priceless.
This was stunningly beautiful to see. Fascinating shots of the hibernating bear and fox on the hunt. It was also the first time that my cat got off the warm couch, stood straight up to touch the TV and watched the show for 20 minutes in rapt attention. Even he was captivated- that has never happened before!
he is so cute I thought this was funny<33333 luv yall
Those dives are great!
I watched this video on a trip to Yellowstone last week and loved it! I love foxes and watching this is so funny my class can’t stop laughing!
creatures of God…beautiful
when does this show air?
My boyfriend has grey foxes out in his backyard and he says they do this too. I would love to see this in real life one day!
The music is perfect with the video! Excellent, well done!
OMG! He is so cute! I just want to hug him! Such a cute face and adorable!
what an amazing episode. Linda Hunt as narrator was a great choice, and made us feel as if we were in Yellowstone celebrating Christmas! I purchased two copies, one as a gift.
beautyful !!!!!!! I love it…
The sound of the fox is so clear! And the music, like Peter and the Wolf, was it written and performed to the film? Is fabulous. The high tones like mice, the drums like we’re in the circus. And of course so well filmed. Thank you very much!
At second thought: it must be an existing piece of music to which the film is cut, isn’t it? Who is the composer and what is the name of the piece, what orchestra? Where the sounds the fox seem to make put to it later as well?
