FUR ON YOUR BACK IS BLOOD ON YOUR HANDS!
____________


INFO ABOUT THE ANIMAL:

Name: Red fox (vulpes vulpes)
Location: red fox is native to North America, whole Europe, whole Asia, north Africa and it was introduced to Australia
Size: 100 cm long body + 45 cm long tail, 40 cm high weight: 12 kg
Diet: red foxes are omnivorous and are highly opportunistic, so they eat almost everything from small insects to cranes. Red foxes hunt insects, worms, fish, birds, mice, rabbits, crayfish, baby deers. But they eat also fruit (apples, blackberries...) and plants.
Conservation status: Least Concern (the most common carnivora)
Interesting facts: red fox can hide its food to find it later | usually five cubs are born blind and helpless in the burrow | foxes have many colour variations: usually – ginger-red, but also black or silver, Unfortunately, red fox is kept by fur farms and some ----- torture them just to gain their fur. Red foxes are also hunted by so called ,,sportmen“ | red foxes suffer from rabies | red fox is considered to be vermit | red foxes produce pretty weird sounds XD | foxes in the wild live only some 4 years, but they can reach 12 years in captivity
Predators: golden eagles, gray wolves, cougars, lynxes, coyotes, badgers, wolverines
Legend: foxes play important role in many myths and legend. Due their inteligence, they have become symbol of slyness and cunning. They are also very popular animals, who have role in many fairy tales. In the Czech republic, author Rudolf Tesnohlidek wrote very famous book about very clever hand-rised vixen called Bystrouska. I loved that book and also it funny happy end!

What about white red foxes? Croos a silver fox with a red one and you can get a white one!

I do not think there is any white red in Czech ZOOs or animal facilities :)

wow i have never seen a silver red fox...
I guess they are the ones they talk about having the high fur price when settlers arrived in America till they basically got wiped out.
Her colour makes her look totally different to normal foxes...she looks like a different animal, merely cos it looks like she is a different shape from the colour of her fur. (did that make sense)
And her beautiful amber eyes, so striking against the darkness of her fur.
I could stare at this all day.

I couldn't work out for ages what she reminded me of, than it hit me. we used to have this tiny female all black Kelpie cross dog. She used to work sheep and cows. Anyway, she had this danity face and bushy tail with big brown eyes, and she looks just like she does, here, especially when she got old and started to go grey XD
