Do you know about the Fennec Fox?

Perhaps most people have never heard of this animal but it is the smallest species of canine creature in the world today and resembles a small fox with a body weight of an adult at just 1 kilogram. These animals usually reside in arid areas of desert It is usually an animal living in the desert. Two years ago, at the “Inokashira Natural Cultural Park” in Tokyo, a playground was redeveloped for the resident “fennec” population to live and possibly breed. Their natural environment of desert was recreated!
