They have a length of 24 to 41 cms (9.5 to 16 inches), a length of 18 to 31 cms (7 to 12 inches) and weigh between 1 and 1.5 kg (2.25 to 3.25 lbs). They are colored cream or fawn and have extraordinarily large ears.]]> 2019-05-20 14:19:43 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/361747286 cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/361748565 2019-05-20 14:21:58 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/361748565 cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/362932010 2019-05-23 13:52:22 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/362932010 Differences cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/362932303 Tail length

2.) Since there are more predators, the wide eyes could be used to see more.
3.) The reason for bigger ears are so they can hear better, an example for those is to hear predators. ]]> 2019-05-23 13:55:14 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/362933345 Habitat cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/362945559 Sandy Sahara and elsewhere in North Africa. 
Their nocturnal habits save them from the hot temperatures.

A disadvantage is that when an organism is adapted to one habitat, they will not be able to move from where they are. ]]> 2019-05-24 14:24:49 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/363290225 cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/364029035 Genus Species - Vulpes, and fennecus
They are found in the same habitats that fennec foxes are found. 
The Vulpes will have different types of fur, but will generally look like a stereotypical fox look. 
The fennecus fox looks almost exactly the same as the fennec fox. They ave the same fur, although some may vary. ]]> 2019-05-28 14:10:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/364029035 cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365298020 2019-06-03 13:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365298020 cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365303854 2019-06-03 14:02:07 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365303854 Common Traits cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365308931 The fennecus has the same exact body type as the fennec. They also have the same ear size, but not the same big eyes. 
The only thing that the vulpes has in common with the fennec is the kind of fur. They do not hvave the same ears, or eyes.

Like for example, fur color, or type. If an animal has one color of fur, that may be good for one animal, but not for another.]]> 2019-06-05 14:03:29 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365857320 Northwest African cheetah / Acinonyx jubatus hecki cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365959120 2019-06-05 21:05:58 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365959120 Taxonomy cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365959520 Kingdom:  | Animalia

Because resources are restricted in nature, organisms with heritable characteristics that favor survival and reproduction tend to leave more children than their colleagues, causing the characteristics to rise over generations in frequency. Their spotted pattern helps them blend in with their surroundings. ]]> 2019-06-05 21:19:23 UTC https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/365960878 Sources cc381 https://padlet.com/cc381/cj2axb6tg2p6/wish/366114271 https://seaworld.org/animals/facts/mammals/fennec-fox/
