Excellent Paul, the point is to tell the story and you achieve that well. Character (the fox) plus action (the chase) equals plot. It has a beginning, middle and ends with a moral.
Personally I don't like foxes, my dogs find their poo everywhere and love to roll around in it. Its very stinky and the dogs have to be bathed. However I`m glad your hero lived to hunt another day, I`m not a fan of hunting.
I`ll be waiting for the musical version, which I`m sure you`ll execute perfectly, unless something jams.
