Okay kiddo, imagine you have a friend who is a wild silver fox, just like the ones you see in the forest. This fox is not used to being around humans and might run away if you get too close.
But what if we wanted to make friends with the fox and get it to come close to us? That's where something called "taming" comes in.
When people tame animals, it means they work with the animal over time to get it used to being around humans and behaving in ways that are helpful or friendly.
For the silver fox, taming involves a lot of patience and love. People who want to tame a silver fox might start by offering it food from a distance so the fox can get used to their presence. Over time, they might move closer and closer while the fox eats until eventually it's comfortable being very close to them.
As the fox gets more comfortable, taming might involve petting or playing with the fox, teaching it commands or tricks, and helping it learn to trust people more.
Taming can take a long time and requires dedication and care from both the person and the animal. But in the end, it can create a special bond between humans and the wild creatures that share our world.
