I learned a lot about donestication from this video. I knew domestication was basically eugenic, but I didn't realize it could happen in so few generations.

You can buy fox urine at Home Depot, Lowes, and Amazon. It's a predator, so you can use said urine to scare away small animals as a form of pest control. It is strong, way worse then dogs, and more pungent/musky then cats. Having one as a pet means willingly submitting yourself to that because they just be peein'. Would definitely recommend if you're ever considering getting one as a pet so you know what you're getting yourself into.

Good to know i'm a pro with the old white vinegar spray bottle, but fox pee being stinkier than cat pee is good foot notes to the $9,000 price tag.
