Description

"Morning Snuggle - Red Fox Mother and Kit" by Patti Deters. A red fox (Vulpes vulpes) mother and her young kit share a morning snuggle under a large cedar tree. This female is raising the kit on her own, a job that is usually shared with the male. Red fox are one of the more common species of fox and is easily identified by the reddish tint to the fur, black legs and black ears, and long bushy tail with a white tip. The muzzle (snout or nose) is elongated with white fur underneath in the neck area and they have pointy ears tinged in black. A baby fox is called a kit and they are miniature versions of the adults, a little paler in color but with an extra dose of cuteness! Texture and overlays have been applied to reduce background distractions and for artistic effect. This is one of three images in a pre-formatted triptych image that you can find a the link below.
