1959 Press Photo Mike, the red fox, & Chris Whilfield vie for a chair in MS

He was born in a stump and reared in the city thinks he is a dog. His nose for trouble has put him in jail and in the hospital, but his spirit of adventure remains undiluted by fear or caution and he now has to be confined to quarters. Such a one is Mike, handsome, 9-month-old red fox owned by Harold Applewhite, 1313 Cherokee, Pascagoula, Mississippi. Mike evicts Chris Whitfield, 2, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dallas Whitfield, Pascagoula, from his favorite chair.
