Did You Know?
A fun fact about Vulpes vulpes (the red fox) is that they have vertical, slit-like pupils, similar to cats, which help them see incredibly well in low light, and they use their bushy tails for balance, warmth, and communication, often with a white tip. They are also highly vocal, using over 40 different calls, and can leap great distances to pounce on prey, a hunting technique called "mousing".
