Is Kitsune real

Well, kitsune means fox in Japanese. More specifically, a red fox that lives in forests around the world. So kitsune is real.

Yes, foxes are real. There is also a species falsely dubbed 'kitsune", which are supposed to be foxes that can change form and live for thousands of years. This is not true. However, like the common werewolf, there is a species that can shift from female human to fox. I am one of them, will not live a thousand years, do not have nine tails, and can not do magic.
