Ehem. *Spoiler* Fox caught in a bear trap, trying to free herself all night. Now, "Mommy fox started to chew at her own leg" (My translation) .... .....

Let's just leave it at "i'm happy I'm not a fox in Hokkaido"

(Spoiler) how happy- old couple returns from the ravishes of war to find that their tamed friend baby fox and his mom died of starvation while caught in a bear trap, and decayed into flowers.
