In case you don’t remember, fennec foxes have characteristically large ears as you can see here. According to National Geographic’s Fennec Fox article, these nocturnal foxes are native to North Africa and are actually the smallest foxes. Their large ears, meanwhile, are 15 cm (6 inches) long, and are useful for helping to dissipate heat.

I hope you enjoy this picture of these goofy newborns. They look so soft and cuddly. Wouldn’t you just love to hold one?

I’m sure you guys think that fennec foxes are cute. I’m also sure you also think that watching animals stretch is cute too. With that in mind, I decided that a picture of a fennec fox stretching must be very cute. I see that I was definitely right about that! Enjoy!

Aren’t fennec foxes just unbelievably adorable with their super large ears, soft fur and kissable faces? Oh my, fennec foxes are soooo cute. These three young ones in particular not only look adorable, but are behaving in a goofy way as well. What do you think they’re scoping out over the ledge?

Foxes are another one of those kinds of animals that are often portrayed in a poor light in fables. Sure, they are always clever (hence sly as a fox), but it seems that the foxes are never up to any good! In this case, I’m sure this little fennec fox would never try to play a trick on anyone. He looks like a very sweet and friendly guy. I love his super soft fur, his large fennec fox ears (though they are neatly folded back), and his explosion of black whiskers! So what do you think? Do you agree that maybe the fables might have been wrong about foxes after all?
