When: June 18, 2018
Where: Natura ARTIS Magistra Amsterdam, The Netherlands

All that running around, evading your mother who wants to hide you away and keep you safe, is tiring for little Fennec Fox kits
You can still see a drying patch on his nape from when his mother tried to carry him away. She let him sleep as he totally conked out here, dreaming and twitching in an adorable way

Species: Fennec Fox (Fennek vos of Woestijnvos)

Latin name: Vulpes Zerda

Originates from Northern Africa.

Current status: Least Concern

Did you know:

…The word “Fennec” is Arabic for Fox, so basically, we call him “Fox Fox”.

…Its large ears are its most distinct feature, and serve to dissipate heat.
