I want to talk about how Foxy hunts locusts.
I already said once that he loses his head at the sight of locusts, but the hunt is worthy of me talking about it.
I usually release the locusts 3-4 meters away from him. Foxy instantly notices this and freezes, and then the hunt begins. He simply hypnotizes her for a while, then runs half the distance to her and stops. He turns and looks at me, slowly waves his hand at me. This can last from a few seconds to a minute, after which he turns towards the locust and begins to wag his tail like a cat before the final throw. After this, he quickly runs the second half of the distance and catches locusts. This behavior is repeated every time he gets locusts, so it was not difficult for me to capture it on video. He runs, waves his hand at me, wags his tail and then runs and eats again.
I always wondered why he waves his hand?
He says: “Thank you! You know how much I love this!” Or maybe he's thinking: "Please be quiet! Don't scare away my locast!"
