What is a Fennec?
The fennec fox is the smallest of all foxes, weighing just about 2.2 to 3.3 pounds (1 to 1.5 kilograms). Despite its petite size, it boasts ears that can be up to 6 inches (15 centimeters) long! These large ears help dissipate heat and allow the fennec to hear prey moving underground. Its thick, soft fur is cream-colored, providing insulation during cold desert nights and protection from the hot sun during the day. Fennec foxes are nocturnal, spending the daytime in cool burrows to avoid the desert heat. They are omnivores, feeding on insects, small mammals, birds, and plants. Remarkably, they can go for long periods without water, getting moisture from their food. Fennec foxes live in the deserts of North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, thriving in sandy environments.
