Fox Tracks

**Sweatshirts are 6" larger in chest size than the t-shirts**

Red fox tracks mark the front of this shirt, while a fox sits on the back with its common and scientific name. The red fox is distributed across the Northern Hemisphere excluding the Mohave desert and the American Great Basin, where its niche is filled by the fennec fox and kit fox respectively. They tend to dominate other species in their range; the range of the arctic fox is limited on the south by the northern extent of the larger red foxes. They live in small family groups, with adolescents staying on with their parents to assist in care of new litters, and eat fruits and prey on many kinds of small animals.

Despite centuries of persecution as a pest and for their fur, red foxes are thriving and have always thrived. They cohabit well with humans, as they are not seen as directly dangerous but can feed on urban animals like rats and squirrels (not to mention human food scraps). Red foxes are very territorial and courageous, defending their kills against sometimes much larger predators.
