They're also quite curious. There are a fair number of photos and videos out there of researchers and other workers seeing a curious fox come up to them.
You should cover the Mexican free tailed bat. In spring they form the largest gathering of mammals anywhere in the world in a cave outside of San Antonio, Texas. It is called Bracken Bat Cave.
In Scandinavia the Arctic fox is considered endangered, since there are no polar bears to get food from in the winter they only have lemmings and voles to rely on. In Norway I think there are around 300 adult individuals, but the populations are fragmented and many rely on human feeding stations to stay alive
I have watched enough SaveAFox to know what kind of fax machine noises most foxes make. I wish you had some of the arctic fox noises so we could make sure they are speaking the same protocol. (:
I love watching your program. Your artistic talents as well as knowledge always feed my curiosity and desire to learn. Thank you for what you do. I wish you much success in the future.
Yes it's a mutation/morph/phase of Red fox (Vulpes vulpes) known as Canadian Marble Fox (Vulpes vulpes), i think the confusion lies with there other known name the Arctic marble fox, there's a lot of Google misinformation saying they are the result of a hybrid between Red fox (Vulpes vulpes) and Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus). When they are a Red fox (Vulpes vulpes) mutation/morph/phase that first appeared in Canada, from a Red fox (Vulpes vulpes) and (Silver) Red fox (Vulpes vulpes) crossbreeding, but they keep using the term hybrid.
@@animalogic I will keep on putting this request in the comments of every Animalogic video until the video about prairie dogs is posted. (Note: that doesn't include Paleologic, Floralogic, or World of Birds videos, I put different requests on those ones.)
It’s ridiculous how cute they are with both winter coat and summer coat And of course the part at the end with humans killing said animal for their fur🙄🤬
Once met a Colorado black fox in the forest. Gave up fur on the spot. Fur is cruelty & we build great winterwear these days. There's just no need for it.🤗
OMG< adorable white floof! so cute! It would be really cool if you guys could do a video on hedgehogs (the wild kind, not the pet kind). I find them so absolutely adorable!
I'm not sure about artic foxes, but red foxes can see the Earth's poles and use it as a sort of laser guide to capture their prey. They are the only known animal to be able to see the Earth's poles.
That's interesting, but isn't that the same methods birds use to navigate 🤨 (so I don't think red foxes ability is unique to them or that special to be fair). Other than that it is interesting to see that diverse ranges of foxes have developed ways to navigate and survive.
@@HShango Birds may navigate by it, rats become more restless during magnetic storms, and some researchers have argued that resting cows tend to align themselves pointing poleward, except under power cables which locally disrupt the field. But foxes are the only animal we know of that uses it to hunt. A fox that is stealthily approaching its intended meal will be most successful if it orientates itself either within about 20 degrees of the magnetic north, or due south, at least according to one recent study. Leaps from other directions usually fail to pin the prey. If foxes are indeed capable of magnetoreception, the mechanism by which they perceive the direction of the magnetic poles is unclear. The authors of this study speculate that foxes perceive the geometric field as an area of light or shade in their vision - in fact, even in people, laboratory tests show that the field impacts light perception.
artic foxes are one of my favourite animals. they're just so cute. their little nose and smaller ears (than other types of foxes), and the way they tilt their heads to listen to prey before pouncing head first into snow. and their snow white fur is so pretty
They do. There is a Russian RU-vid. Channel, where the guy talks about this program. In their free time, they go ice fishing and use the fish to feed foodies that approach them. Its been going on for years. Its the same people that feed hungry polar bears. They have it much easier then animals in other regions, cuz they learned that they can rely on humans to feed them. Its mostly fish leftovers from processing plant. Tons of it, daily
My longest-running beastfolk D&D character is an arctic fox. He’s a silver draconic bloodline sorcerer from a noble house. I’ve been playing him for over three years.
litters of up to 22 puppies? how small are those? 0_O I guess living in elaborate dens is an essential factor enabling arctic foxes to havesuch largelitters even though the adults are very small - even tiny puppies are protected by the dens.
I'm so happy to see the arctic and polar relationship again. Years ago I often watch documentaries where Arctic Fox always follow polar bears. But now I literally don't see it anymore in the latest polar region documentaries. I theorized it is because polar bears are no longer as successful in hunting seals as before due to global warming hence arctic fox no longer follow them. But now I see the thumbnail in this video of an Arctic Fox following a Polar Bear and I feel happy. ❤❤❤
Please cover the pygmy marmoset when you get a chance... I don't know when you'll be in the amazon but I can only imagine how awesome it would be to see and interact with these creatures in person.
Tigers also get to live together when food is abundant. All mammals would prefer it. I believe most "solitary" mammals are quite lonesome and the solitary behavior is an unfortunate necessity but not a strict preference.
I was up around the Chantry Inlet. North of the Churchill up by the Baffin Islands. I got a tentative job offer to skip college and spend the winters working in the area. I asked him if I accepted the job what would be the coldest I would work. The answer was -60 degrees. I asked if he was saying it doesn’t get colder than that temperature. He answered that that was not true. Below -60 degrees entitles you to a day off. I decided that a warm college lecture hall sounded a lot more inviting.
The “Partners In Crime” Part: Arctic Fox: Okay, so, this is definitely the best way to get around in life, I’ll give you that. But it’s also possible that we could get caught in the act. Polar Bear: Oh, come on, man, this plan is genius. Besides, with a plan like this, no one will even know that we were here.
