Determined to catch him, the farmers use spades and shovels to dig their way into the foxes’ home, but Mr and Mrs Fox (Meryl Streep) and their four children dig a tunnel deeper into the ground and escape. The farmers decide to play a waiting game, keeping watch on the entrance to the fox hole with shotguns ready, while their men patrol the area to make sure the foxes don’t escape.

After days of starving, Mr Fox comes up with a plan. He and his children dig further on and end up in one of the farmers chicken house. There they steal some chickens and leave without any sign of them ever being there……
