foxes are fucking rad, who cares if they’re an epidemic to Australia.
Do they do good for other countries? Not really. They eat from trash cans and no one likes them. Except for me and other trash eaters.
I’m going to take over a small country somewhere and fill it with the best animals. Fuck ecology.
American Cross Fox
This is actually a partially-melanistic form of the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) - like the fully-melanistic silver fox, the only difference between the Cross Fox and the red fox is the coloration of the coat. There seem to be differences in body size and coat texture between the three, but it’s been shown that those differences are due to environment and diet.
The Quadrupeds of North America. John James Audubon, 1851.
The information above is correct, however the accompanying illustration is a grey fox, not a cross fox. They have a similar coat pattern, but the grey is a separate species from the red. At any rate, I love these illustrations. Even if Audubon was a bit of a bastard. ;)
I seem to have posted the wrong fox.
Whoops.

I wish I lived in a country where I could openly admire foxes. Where it also snows.
But as it is, hush; this is our little secret.
