Not a bit of it. Im not claiming that it is impossible to know what a
fox is feeling (or, in more precise language, to empathise with a fox).
I am claiming that your assertion that a fox would feel a little tired
and a little anxious is an anthropomorphism -- saying what a human
would feel if he were in precisely the same position as the fox actually
is. That argument is as specious as saying that a farm and abbatoir is a
bovine Auschwitz.
