Death from above.

Dude's got 7.1 Dolby HD ears.

Amazing, not only does it hear the mice, but it knows their exact location under the snow.

A snow diving fox is my spirit animal.

He actually goes nose first - that's awesome!

My cat does a similar thing locating my toes beneath the bed blanket.

It's like watching a ballet...with fangs! Awesome!

Just how good does your hearing have to be to be that accurate, under snow, from that distance? Unbelievable.

Many years ago, the wife and I were walking our dog, Hudson, when he stopped, looked around a bit, then did a low-trajectory dive version of the above video, and went shoulders-deep into a snow bank. He wiggled around for a bit, then came up with a banana peel. Weird.

*promote for kulpims getting a diamond and also because this vid is awesomesauce!
