Explore "Wild Animals I have Known" by Ernest Thompson Seton on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
It was well known that there was an old fox with his family living in the neighborhood, but no one supposed them so near.
This fox had been called "Scarface," because of a scar reaching from his eye through and back of his ear; this was supposed to have been given him by a barbed-wire fence during a rabbit hunt, and as the hair came in white after it healed it was always a strong mark.
