Desert Fox

The Desert Fox from Schleich® WILD LIFE lives in the sandy deserts of North Africa. It has an excellent sense of hearing and can even detect prey that lives underground. The large ears also release body heat, making the fox perfectly adapted to the hot temperatures in its native habitat. The little predator feeds primarily on insects, small rodents, reptiles, birds and fruit. The desert fox is also known as the fennec fox.

Fun Fact: The  ears of the desert fox account for 20% of its body surface.
