The swift fox got it's name from how fast it is, it must be pretty fast then. The swift fox is a fox of beautiful color, it has orange fur with black and white specs on it to. They will usually be in their burrow or (little home). They have a diet of eating seeds, berries, rabbits, prairie dogs, mice, and birds. when they run they will meet up to 30 mph! Cool right! So that is the speedy Swift Foxes! Photo credit:  primcousa.com photo credit:  endangeredwolfcenter.org

Cute little ears are poking out everywhere! And look, they're the desert foxes! The desert fox is the only fox in Utah that dwells in the desert. with it's cute fuzzy ears and desert features it has many talents for survival. One of these many talents is hidden under their cute fuzzy ears. their ears are powerful and important for survival. They will help the desert fox dissipate body heat through evaporative cooling. And one of the best parts are that they are nocturnal (which means they are awake at night.) "Cool right"! So during the day they are snoring away the heat and at night they will come out because it is much cooler. Info found on: www.wildaboututah.org Photo credit:  www.mnn.com

You may not see them but they are there! The Gray foxes are here!    The little gray foxes are pretty small, the full grown male is about 15 inches hight, well the female is 12 inches hight. Which is pretty small I think. The gray foxes tale is not as puffy as the others but has a cute black tip at the end. They are strong and feisty, including that they where made for running really fast for long periods of time. yet still not faster then a cheetah..........yet. Who knows they could be! The gray fox's best friend is probably a tree. They are the only foxes that can climb them, they can find food from them, they provide shelter , they can sleep in them, and can probably use it as a free bathroom too. And that is all about our gray foxes. Photo credit:  danielbernaphoto.blogspot.com

It is time, and you know it! The black foxes are here to fight! These Black foxes are truly ninjas, in fact they are part red fox too! They are very rare foxes and this is due to their black fur. When the black fox was a red fox it goes through a stage where its fur goes really dark but the Black foxes fur will stay black due to a rare genetic flaw they got hundreds of years back. This is why they are the ninjas they are! Photo credit:  hdwallpaper.com Source of info for post:  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/2984313/Unlucky-rare-black-fox-spotted-in-Britain.html

It is winter and our snow foxes are out for a snowball fight! These snowy foxes were meant for snow! They won't even shiver until the temperature drops below -94 degrees Fahrenheit! Talk about an adorable ice queen! And later to complete their diet how about sushi? These snowy fur-balls love to eat fish, berries, seaweed, and other little snacks. They live in dens where it is frost free. And where they can raise their young (their cuties). When hunting out side home to catch something for their young they will turn in to furry ninjas! Their hearing is so cool! they know the exact position where an animal maybe moving under the snow! So at the right moment they will pounce and catch their pray and call it good for the day and go back to their den for dinner.  photo credit:  www.thinglink.com photo credit:  Animilia Life Source of info for this post from Wikipedia

Say hello to our fiery friends the red foxes. The red fox is the first I will be writing about there are a lot of cool things to do with these playful buddies. You may think that they hunt out in the wild searching for their yummy meaty dinner, and that is true but they are also part vegetarian! They will eat veggies like lettuce and spinach and will munch and nibble on fruit too.......no wonder their fur is so soft. Like most foxes they will live up in the mountain or in forests where they will dig a hole that they can crawl into and then call it home. photo credit:  Sergey Zveref photo credit:  Richard Schaaf
