2) [n1williams] 28-11-2009(23): In Japanese folklore the FOX is known for changing shape. This one was being chased by a PACK OF WILD DOGS and passing a garden, changed into a MELON to hide.

3) [chibimizuno] 13-7-2009(10): In Japanese mythology, foxes often disguise themselves as women. So that foxy lady who has enchanted all the men (which are slobbering over her like wild dogs) with her large melons might be an actual fox!

4) [manubear] 10-8-2012(2): As an alternative to fox hunting, ethical country folk have taken to replacing the fox with a melon. It's quite a comical sight watching the wild dogs chasing it down a hill!
