Vulpes fulva
June 18 Barrow Abolter. A Red Fox was seen in the area
S at Family Lagoon. It was about 300 yds away
and it stood and watched us (Pook and I). After
several minutes it turned and walked away. This
fox does not seem as red as those I have seen
earlier and looked a conspicuous white-tip to the
tail. It looked very similar to a fox that is kept
here for Physiology experiments however.
June 24 A Red Fox was observed running in the
barrel area. This fox looked different than
the one observed on June 18; it was more ragged
looking.
Aug 17 A young Red Fox was observed near me at th
AACS sheds. It could be approached to within about
10 ft. without being seen when I returned to th
wreck it followed my tracks. It then went
and picked up a dead goose and shook it in its
tail like a puppy would a shoe.
Aug 20 A Red Fox was observed on th. far side of Wits
Crack near lime TUB. It was laying curled up asleep
and would not have been noticed except a Big Tail
but it flew about 20' away from it. It set
up and looked like it might try to catch
the Godwit. The Godwit flew. The fox then walked
about 50 yds, to E and lay down again.
