European Red Fox





The Red Fox is an elusive animal. It is rare in California.

The Red Fox occurs in one subspecies in California:The Sierra Nevada Red Fox.
It lives from places in Lassen County and down to Tulare County. Introduced populations live in scattered locations from Lake to Orange Counties. These introduced populations may seem bigger;
 this is because this is the larger European subspecies. Genetic studies conducted by UC Davis proved that a long-thought-to-be-introduced population to be it's own subspecies.
