    for a completely different type of foxing, please see these diagrams made by humans in collaboration with foxes:

    Thank-you for the links and comments, all. I was having a hard time reading this one (at first, I thought that was because I lack French). Now I am mesmerized...

    Oh, and the shamanistic fox pattern link is also really interesting! Thanks for sharing that, Tim.

    This is brilliant, but only if it is a comic. Is this intended to be a comic?? Or am I meant to read it??

    Well, yeah, it's meant as a "comic," or at least as a record of some kind of visual sequence. The underlying subject adds something, I suppose, but no, you are not meant to read the words.
