The Santa Rosa Island fox is a small subspecies of the island fox, native to Santa Rosa Island in California. It typically weighs between 2 to 6 pounds and has a distinctive grayish-brown coat. This fox is adapted to the island's unique environment, primarily feeding on fruits, insects, and small animals. Due to habitat loss and the introduction of non-native species, the population of the Santa Rosa Island fox has faced significant decline. Conservation efforts, including habitat restoration and predator control, have been implemented to help protect this vulnerable species and ensure its survival on the island.
