The fox (Vulpes vulpes) (also called common or red fox) is a member of the canine family. The fox coat is generally reddish brown, but can also be beige to bright red, or silvery to black (especially in the mountains). The darker varieties sometimes have other names, such as fire fox or cross fox. Albinos also occur. The ears are black on the back, as are the "socks", the lower legs. Some animals have a white tail tip; many foxes have at least some white hairs around the tip of the tail. The upper lip is white, as well as the muzzle. On the cheeks of many foxes is a black or brown tear drop. Some animals have a steel grey throat and belly, with a white star on the chest. In the mating season the female, the mother fox, has a pink sheen over the coat on the underside.
The fox has a slender snout and pointed upright ears. The tail is long, thick and shaggy. It has a shoulder height of 35 to 40 centimetres and stands high on its legs. It has a head-rump length of 50 to 80 centimeters with a tail of 32 to 48 centimeters. It weighs six to ten, sometimes fifteen kilograms. Males are generally larger than females.
