Bird Steals Fur From A Sleeping Fox For Its Nest

September 10, 2021

Some species of birds turn to living mammals as a source of building material for their nests.

In this video, captured by Texas Backyard Wildlife, a black-crested titmouse risks being lunch to steal some fur from a fox's back.

At first the fox seems irritated by the bird, but once she established that the fox wasn't going to kill her, she went to work plucking out fur -- and the fox lets her do it!
