Description

When: May 22, 2021

Where: Faunapark Flakkee Nieuwe-Tonge, The Netherlands

This is one of the adults; you can recognize them from the much longer hair - it's less springy and falls around their face a bit more.

Species: Red Fox (Rode vos)

Latin name: Vulpes Vulpes

Originates from the entire Northern Hemisphere, and has been introduced to Australia.

Current status: Least Concern

Did you know:

…The Red Fox is the largest of true Foxes, and the most geographically spread.

…It distinguishes itself in its ability to adapt quickly to new and changed environments, and is not enlisted as endangered anywhere.

…Despite its name, the Red Fox is known to appear in abnormal colorings, such as albinos and melanists.

… Silver Foxes are a mutation of the Red Fox, bred for their fur and now finding their way into life-long homes at zoos, saved from being skinned and their pelts sold.
