Fox

For the pet counterpart, see Pet Fox.
Not to be confused with the Arctic Fox, the Polar Arctic Fox, or the Fennec Fox.

The Fox is a members-only land animal. They were introduced into Jamaa in July 2012.

Default Appearance

Foxes have small paws, slim legs, and a lean, compact body. Their default color is pale, reddish orange fur, a white underbelly, and maroon ear and leg tips. Their faces are wedge-shaped, with a pointy and narrow nose, the surface being flat, and medium-wide triangular ears; the fox is characterized by its large, fluffy tail. In the right ear, there is an irremovable hole, not unlike the tear in the Arctic Wolves ear.

Acts	Description
	A small sit where their hind legs shorten by size and their paws stretch out to the ground, revealing their pink paw pads.
	Hind legs skip one pace forward, another pace back, while front paws twirl about. Steps in a circle and repeats. It looks somewhat like the hokey-pokey.
	Curls up, tail wrapped around body while chest heaves up and down.
	Bounces upward, tail swaying. This just seems to be more like a spring type of jump.
	Sniffs the ground; swiftly digs a hole and leaps in; comes out through another hole and repeats.
