Yes, we have a lot of photos of the Silver Fox kits, but you have to admit, these are adorable babies with the cutest faces no matter what they do
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 the three 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.
