Viewed as a pest in many parts of the world or killed in the name of fashion, the fox is shown much more love and respect in the tattoo world.
The fox appears in folklore in both Western and Asian cultures; known for their cunning ability to evade hunters, this trait has crossed over into these stories. In Chinese (Japanese and Korean, too) mythology, foxes are depicted as having magical powers which can bring wonder and be a good omen.
If you’ve ever seen some of the cute fox videos online, you’ll quickly fall in love with these beautiful, mischievous creatures. They just want some love, and they’ve found it in these tattoos.
A fox tattoo might just bring you the good fortune you desire. Say no to fox fur coats and yes to fox tattoos!
