- Grand Teton National Park has issued "WANTED" posters warning visitors about a fox, or multiple foxes, that have stolen at least 32 shoes from campers recently.
- Park rangers are advising visitors to secure their footwear in bear boxes, vehicles, or tents to prevent further thefts by the animal.
- Despite the park's warnings, some visitors are intentionally leaving their shoes out in hopes of encountering the elusive shoe-stealing fox.
- Park officials are concerned that the fox's increasing habituation to humans could lead to negative outcomes for the animal, including potential relocation or euthanasia.
- Visitors are urged to report any shoe thefts to rangers and maintain a safe distance from all wildlife, including foxes, to ensure both human and animal safety.
