The Desert Fox from Schleich WILD LIFE is famous for its big, long ears. But it doesnt just use them to listen! The Desert Fox from Schleich WILD LIFE lives in the sandy deserts of North Africa. It has an excellent sense of hearing and can even detect prey that lives underground. The large ears also release body heat, making the fox perfectly adapted to the hot temperatures in its native habitat. The little predator feeds primarily on insects, small rodents, reptiles, birds and fruit. The desert fox is also known as the fennec fox. Schleich figurines are modelled in the finest detail to help children learn while they play. This item is part of the WILD LIFE theme world and is suitable for children aged 3-8
