According to Celtic mythology, witches dwelling in the Cotswolds were thought to take the shape of foxes to steal butter from their neighbors.
Here in Alaska, these beauties are beginning to take advantage of changing climate and the presence of humans and have moved north. While they may not be stealing butter, they definitely are encroaching on arctic fox territory and in some cases outcompeting them for resources.
Cute little thieves!
