This week as part of our Village Wild video series, presented by Tourism Skillsnet North we're featuring a video link submitted to us by Teresa Parada.
In this hilarious video shot at Pinegrove Golf Course in Sudbury, a curious fox interrupts a serene golf game by approaching a golf ball on the green. What follows is pure comedy as the fox sniffs the ball and decides to mark its territory in a unique way. The golfers burst into laughter at this unexpected and amusing wildlife encounter, giving a new meaning to "marking the ball".
Fox encounters on golf courses are not uncommon, as these clever and adaptable creatures often roam the greens in search of food and shelter. Foxes are naturally curious, and their playful nature can lead to entertaining interactions, much like the one captured in this video. It's important to remember that foxes are wild animals and should be observed from a safe distance. If you find yourself in a similar situation, stay calm and avoid sudden movements. Never attempt to feed or approach the fox, as this can disrupt their natural behaviour and potentially cause harm. Appreciate the beauty of these agile creatures from afar, and enjoy the unique blend of wildlife and golf that makes each game on the course a memorable experience.
