This should give an idea the relative size of a young fox compared to a small child. The young foxes have drawn a lot of attention from passerby. At one point I counted about 15 to 17 people standing around observing the fox including some young kids. Although the young fox tolerates having people around, it still maintains a comfort zone so you can't really walk right up to it.
Some objects in picture have been cloned out (just a quick job to hide the location). Other than the cloning out of some objects and selective desaturation, this is an actual crop from a larger photo.
