Answer 7

In England, fox fur was not worn by royalty in medieval days.  Foxes were abundant and were hunted frequently and were therefore more available as a fur ornament for clothing.  Royalty had higher standards -- for instance, only Royalty were permitted to wear clothes trimmed with ermine.   Lesser Nobles and members of the Court wore clothing trimmed with fox and otter.   I don't believe there was a spiritual reason -- it was simply a fashion statement of the times.
