Gray Fox

The gray fox (Urocyon cinereoargenteus), or grey fox, is an omnivorous mammal
of the family Canidae, widespread throughout North America and Central
America. This species and its only congener, the diminutive island fox
(Urocyon littoralis) of the California Channel Islands, are the only living
members of the genus Urocyon, which is considered to be genetically basal to
all other living canids. Though it was once the most common fox in the eastern
United States, and still is found there, human advancement and deforestation
allowed the red fox to become more dominant. The Pacific States still have the
gray fox as a dominant. Its specific epithet cinereoargenteus means "ashen
silver". The gray fox is specifically adapted to climb trees. Its strong,
hooked claws allow it to scramble up trees to escape many predators, such as
the domestic dog or the coyote, or to reach tree-bound or arboreal food
sources. It can climb branchless, vertical trunks to heights of 18 meters and
jump from branch to branch. It descends primarily by jumping from branch to
branch, or by descending slowly backwards like a domestic cat. The gray fox is
primarily nocturnal or crepuscular and makes its den in hollow trees, stumps
or appropriated burrows during the day. Such gray fox tree dens may be located
30 ft above the ground. Prior to European colonization of North America, the
red fox was found primarily in boreal forest and the gray fox in deciduous
forest. Model and Skin: COUGARFAN12, HENDRIX. Text and Image: Eng Wikipedia.
