last night as I was driving home

I saw something very small and furry crawl out of a hole on the side of the road. It didn't look like anything I had seen before. It was too round to be a ferret. Too short to be a hare. Too big to be a mouse. Far too small to be a badger. And not nearly spiky enough to be a hedgehog. Its head was large compared with the rest of its body. Its eyes huge, and ears which stood to attention, pointed and erect. And as I drew up closer to get a better look, and it looked up at the big metallic animal approaching, I saw that it was a tiny baby fox. It didn't give me or the car a second glance. Instead, it just crawled back to where it had come from and disappeared back down the hole on the side of the road.
