Monty’s Story

Meet Monty Fox

Monty Fox arrived in the woods already wearing a grin.

No one knows exactly where he came from. One day the leaves whispered his name, the next day he was there leaning against a tree like he’d been part of the scenery forever. Tail perfectly groomed. Eyes sharp. Smile saying, Trust me… or don’t. Either way, Monty’s already two steps ahead.

Monty is smooth. Not the sneaky, slinking kind of fox you’re warned about in bedtime stories. He’s the kind who talks with his hands, makes bold promises, and somehow convinces you that whatever he’s suggesting was actually your idea first. If the forest had a used-acorn lot, Monty would be running it.

But here’s the thing. Underneath the polish and patter, Monty genuinely loves the woods. He knows every shortcut, every hiding place, every rumor that travels through the trees. He thrives on attention, sure, but he also thrives on belonging. The forest is his stage, and the animals are his audience. He just can’t resist a good performance.

Monty’s biggest flaw is confidence without brakes. He assumes things will work out because they usually do. When trouble comes knocking, Monty doesn’t panic. He pivots. He talks. He distracts. Sometimes it works brilliantly. Sometimes it makes things… louder.

In Playin’ Possum, Monty Fox is the charming wildcard

The one who means well, talks fast, and occasionally makes everything worse before it gets better. He’s not the hero, not the villain, but the spark that keeps the story moving. And whether you trust him or not, one thing’s certain:

Monty already knows you’re watching.

And he’s delighted. 🦊✨

Foxes are enthusiastic omnivores with zero brand loyalty. If it’s edible, they’ll at least consider it. These are the foods foxes actively hunt for and love the most: •Mice & voles – absolute favorites, fast food but healthy •Rabbits – jackpot meal •Squirrels & chipmunks – if they can catch them •Birds & eggs – opportunistic, not picky Small mammals make up the backbone of a fox’s diet. Foxes eat whatever keeps them alive, with a strong preference for small mammals and sweet fruit when available. Clever, flexible, and always hungry.

Here are five cool facts about real foxes:

  1. Red foxes are walking plot twists. Here are five genuinely cool, conversation-starting facts about them 🦊✨

    1. Red foxes can 

    hear

     dinner underground

    A red fox can detect the faint rustle of a mouse moving beneath snow, dirt, or leaves. They use that sound to perform their famous pounce dive, leaping high and landing nose-first with spooky accuracy. It’s not luck. It’s sonar-level hearing.

    2. They come in more colors than a paint store

    Despite the name, red foxes aren’t always red. They can be silver, black, gray, cinnamon, blonde, or patched like a quilt. Same species. Totally different coats. Nature said, “Let’s get stylish.”

    3. Foxes speak fluent chaos

    Red foxes make over 40 different sounds—barks, screams, chirps, howls, and eerie yells that sound like something from a haunted forest. If you’ve ever heard a fox at night and thought, “What on earth was that?”

    Yes. Fox.

    4. They thrive where others fail

    Red foxes live everywhere: deep forests, deserts, tundra, farms, suburbs, and cities. They’re master adapters, changing diet, behavior, and schedules to survive. Basically, if there’s a way to make it work, a fox already has.

    5. They remember where you wronged them

    Red foxes have excellent spatial memory. They remember where they buried food, where danger happened, and which places are safe. If a fox avoids a spot, there’s a reason. They don’t forget easily. Ever.

  • 😒 Monty’s Dislikes

    Things that hit his pride or interrupt his flow:

    • Being called sneaky – smooth is different
    • Getting caught mid-idea – very rude of others
    • Angry chickens – especially ones with strong opinions
    • Rules with no wiggle room
    • Awkward silence – he will fill it
    • Being ignored – unacceptable
    • Losing an audience – devastating
    • When his instincts get him in trouble – again
    • Realizing he hurt someone – the worst feeling
    • Looking foolish – he’d rather look wrong than silly

    Monty loves attention, hates guilt, and is slowly learning that charm doesn’t fix everything—but it can open the door.

Cory Roman voice actor for Monty Fox

Cory Roman brings Monty Fox to life with just the right blend of charm and sideways grin. As Monty’s voice, Cory delivers that smooth-talking sparkle with a wink you can hear through the speakers.

But he’s not just behind the microphone. Cory is also a puppeteer, which means he understands how a character moves, pauses, leans into a joke, and steals a moment. His performance isn’t just spoken, it’s embodied.

When he’s not lending his voice to clever woodland foxes, he’s creating art of his own, bringing imagination into the world through his hands as well as his voice. In short: Monty may be the smooth talker on stage, but Cory is the craftsman behind the curtain.
