Fox Solutions LLC is inspired by one of the most enduring symbols across human culture, the fox.  The term “to outfox” means “to beat in a competition of wits”, similarly to “outguess”, “outsmart”, and “outwit”. Foxes are represented in world mythology since ancient times for their use of their intelligence over brute force.

Africa:

There is a Tswana riddle that says that “Only the muddy fox lives” meaning that, in a philosophical sense, ‘only an active person who does not mind getting muddy gets to progress in life.’

Asia:

The Ancient Chinese admired the red fox, the country’s most common fox, for its intelligence.

America:

The Moche people of ancient Peru worshipped animals and often depicted the fox in their art. The Moche people believed the fox to be a warrior that would use his mind to fight. 

Europe:

In Finnish mythology, the fox, while weaker, in the end outsmarts both the evil and voracious wolf and the strong but not-so-cunning bear. It symbolizes the victory of intelligence over both malevolence and brute strength.

Middle East:

The fox features in the Sumerian Wisdom Literature, much of which can be dated to at least the third millennium BC. It is a leading player in the myth of Enki and Ninchursag where it saves the world from drought and destruction after a dispute between the God and Goddess.
