INFO ABOUT THE ANIMAL:

Name: Fennec fox (Vulpes zerda or fennecus zerda)
Location: Sahara Desert - North Africa and Sinai
Size: 40 cm long body + 25 cm long tail weight: 1,5 kg
Diet: rodents, insects, birds, eggs, desert vegetation (fruit, roots, berries)
Conservation status: Least Concern
Interesting facts: female fox gives birth to 2-5 kits and both parents then take care of the babies: mother does not allow the male to come closer to cubs, but the male still brings her some food | fennec foxes use their huge ears for good hearing and also for thermoregulation! | fennec foxes have fur on their paws, so they can run on hot sand | fennec foxes have black tips on their tails | fennec foxes are mostly active during night | fennec fox is said to be the only species of fox, which can be kept as real domestical pet | fennec foxes are surprisingly swift, as they can run fast and jump very hight | fennec foxes are the smallest species of all foxes | chihuahuas (dogs) are NOT related to fennec foxes, athough some people think so!
ZOO: in the Czech republic, fennec fox is kept in ZOO Prague, ZOO Olomouc and ZOO Dvur Kralove nad Labem.

My love of this kind of fox grows every time I look at your shots.

Could I use this pic as an icon?

~MasterHanLarnsu Apr 1, 2013

You always do so lovely photos of this fennec fox, how do you create this depth? It looks like you´re able to place lamps and stuff all around his cage - but a zoo wouldn´t allow this, would it?

incredible shot, very dramatic w/ the light fur on a black background!

would you mind if i drew this and posted it? i won't make it a print, it'll fall under the category of 'fan art'.

I like this one, it shows off the ears size nicely.

~Subarufoxboy Mar 27, 2013

A nice portrait.. and nice ears XD

~LMonster2 Mar 26, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

I simply love these pictures you take. The darkness in the back and the lit up face of the fox are adorable and blend so well.

~WerewTerrefGrin Mar 24, 2013 Student Traditional Artist

Fennec foxes... the original kings of huge ears xD
