Original Note:
In Siberia, scientists study DNA in silver foxes to mimic ancient domestication like cats and dogs. However, this isolated study doesn't prove foxes are self-domesticating. The foxes in the original video are simply seizing an opportunity, not showing signs of domestication. https://www.sciencenews.org/article/red-fox-dna-genome-domestication
