Live with more feral fox (8)
I believe the answer is:
bewilder
'fox' is the definition.
(I know that bewilder is a more specific form of the action fox)
'live with more feral' is the wordplay.
'live' becomes 'be' (synonyms).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'more feral' becomes 'wilder' ('wild' can be similar in meaning to 'feral').
'be'+'wilder'='BEWILDER'
(Other definitions for bewilder that I've seen before include "Confuse - perplex" , "Confuse, puzzle" , "Baffle" , "Perplex the wild beer" , "fox" .)
