	If there is a stage 3 or 4 [[Minecraft:sweet berry bush]] within a 16 [[Minecraft:block]] radius of a fox, it sprints toward the bush and eats the [[Minecraft:sweet berries]], dropping the item it was holding. However, if the fox is in 2 blocks range above the sweet berry bush and is already holding an item, the fox ~~will harvest~~ the sweet berries, making them drop, but ~~will not eat~~ them nor ~~drop~~ the item ~~it was holding~~.

If a fox is holding a [[Minecraft:totem of undying]], it receives the effects after taking fatal damage. {{IN\|bedrock}}, if a fox wields a sword with the Fire Aspect enchantment while attacking a mob on a [[Minecraft:campfire]] or a soul campfire, it ignites the campfire and does critical [[Minecraft:damage]] to the entity.
