Want a domesticated fox of your own? Remember these rules. First, bringing one into the United States costs almost $9,000. Several states outright ban people from keeping foxes as pets, including California, New York, Texas and Oregon. And of course, while domesticated foxes are friendlier than those in the wild, they can still be unpredictable.
"[You can be] sitting there drinking your cup of coffee and turning your head for a second, and then taking a swig and realizing, 'Yeah, Boris came up here and peed in my coffee cup," said Amy Bassett, the Canid Conservation Center's founder. "You can easily train and manage behavioral problems in dogs, but there are a lot of behaviors in foxes, regardless of if they're Russian or U.S., that you will never be able to manage."
