Fox

Perhaps the phrase "sly as a fox" owes its origin to the ultra-sneaky foxes in the mountains of South America. Quite frankly, the foxes need to be as cunning as possible, as birds in this region -- such as the rhea -- tend to be quite large. And you know what they say about big birds ... big eggs. Foxes wait for the rheas to make a move so they can sneak in and snatch the eggs, but because the eggs are often too large to grab in their mouths, the foxes will roll the eggs with their snouts to knock them against something, like a rock or a tree, in the hopes of breaking them down. So, does that qualify as over easy or sunny-side up?
