The Gray Fox is a small to medium-sized canid native to North America. It has a distinctive grayish coat with reddish-brown patches on its sides and a bushy tail with a black tip. Unlike other fox species, the Gray Fox is known for its ability to climb trees, which it uses to escape predators and find food. Gray Foxes primarily feed on small mammals, birds, and fruits. They are solitary animals and are most active during dawn and dusk. Their habitat includes forests, brushy areas, and suburban regions, making them adaptable to various environments.
