Field Notes

Description:

The gray fox is mainly distinguished from most other canids by its grizzled upper parts, strong neck and black-tipped tail, while the skull can be easily distinguished from all other North American canids by its widely separated temporal ridges that form a U-shape.

Habitat:

Juniper, scrub oak and grazing land.

Notes:

Came across this little fox while I was out on my Sunday morning ramble. The fox didnt move until I moved past.
