Description:ENGLISH: Myth about the fox, which gets and raises a girl in order to marry her later. One day, she finds a human lover who kills the fox and takes her home to her parents. It was narrated by a Trumai storyteller in 1989. Although the quality of the recording is not good, it was preserved because the content is important. This myth was recorded again in 2000, in a slightly different version and with another narrator. ----- PORTUGUÊS: Mito sobre o "raposa", que pega uma menina e a cria para depois casar com ela. Um dia, a menina encontra um namorado que mata o "raposa" e a leve de volta para a casa dos pais. Foi narrado por um Trumai já idoso em 1989. Embora a qualidade de gravação não seja boa, foi preservada porque o conteúdo é importante. Esse mito foi gravado novamente em 2000, em uma versão um pouco diferente e com outra narradora.
