What Is The Fennec Fox

Or also known as the Fennec Fox, this fox can be known to be very small. Not only does the Fennec Fox have a small structure and pale coat, but its long slender ears are used for hearing their prey scurry around at night. The species lives in Asia or North Africa and they also have thick fur under their paws to protect them from hot sand. Its coat is the same shade of the sand to help it blend in to its surroundings in its ecosystem. The Fennec Fox is also nocturnal, and eats lower prey such as small mammals because it is a predator.

Fun Fact: Fennec Foxes can be pets, but can get lonely so you need at least two of them since they are so social.
