More than 120 shoes
have gone missing from homes and gardens in
Germany after a fox developed a bizarre
fetish.For more than a year, people in a small town in the western part of the country were wondering who was responsible for shoes going missing from their doorsteps and garden terraces at night.
All kinds of shoes were taken including flip-flips, workman's boots and even old slippers.
The mystery was solved when a forestry worker found the fox's den in a nearby woods filled with the stolen shoes.
The fox is believed to either be collecting the shoes as toys for her six cubs or just because she likes them.
The recovered shoes are set to be returned to their owners but the fox remains at large and is reportedly still stealing footwear.
SINC SAYS:
You have to wonder what would prompt a fox to swipe shoes, don’t you?
