I love how the fox keeps turning back, keenly aware, undaunted and curious of its human onlooker
I really love these African wild dogs. Simply one of the cutest mammals on the planet.
Super serums

Red pandas 🐼can give them a run for their money though. 😂
As a hindu, i say our hindu bengal tiger is more cute.
@@Krishnahgg tigers don't have religion.
The fact that they run so fast on the sand shows how incredible and strong their little paws are..!!

Probably dont want to burn their paws :D
They're very light as well...
They have hairs on their paws that helps deal with the heat and run quickly and well on sand, so luckily they don’t burn their paws!

Also, they didn't lose track of shit you fool.

“Millions upon millions of grains of sand”? There are that many in my driveway.
Right? A Nuclear plant requires around 12 million tons of sand.
@@Chris-rr5uc 12 million vs multiplies of 1,000,000 million sand grains
@@johnebner7346 Bro, spit it out instead of acting smart
@@johnebner7346still not enough.
Estimating the number of grains of sand on Earth is quite challenging due to the vastness and variety of sand grains worldwide. However, scientists estimate there are roughly 7.5 x 10^18 (7.5 quintillion) grains of sand on Earth. This number can vary depending on the size and definition of what constitutes a "grain" of sand.

Amazing how they evolved for the heat as much as arctic foxes evolved for the cold.

It’s a hard life in the Sahara for such cute little creatures. Mad respect for the fennecs of the Sahara
This is on top of the political strife many countries in the Sahara face and the fact that Fennecs are constantly hunted for their pelts by the locals due to the lack of concrete protections in the area thanks to centuries of wars, droughts, famines and military dictatorships. And yet they're not at risk of going extinct in the wild (they're listed as "Least Concern" on the IUCN Red List for this reason). People tend to forget this when they see footage of Fennec Foxes and Sand Cats, despite their diminutive size and high-pitched screams, they are hyper-specialised, hyper-lethal vectors and predators who are more statistically successful as hunters than any Tiger, Wolf, Bear or large Wild Dog/Wild Cat.
Since the early days of my life, I used to see them around my dad's house in the Sahara desert.
This animal is very smart,
Unbelievable how they survive in these heavy circumstances! Huge differences in temperature, almost no water and food and no shelter at all! 🐾
Like a pokemon it's abilities are adapted to its habitat
They've probably been out there for millions of years in one form or another. That's how they've adapted. Also notice there are no humans out there which in itself is huge as the wildlife can survive like they've done for a very long time. It gets a lot more difficult for many species to survive with humans around unless of course they've evolved to live alongside us. Once we humans figure out a way to turn a desert into a thriving ecosystem, with skyscrapers and what not many of these creatures will probably go extinct.
@@huldu Yes, I agree with you! Hopefully this will become better in the upcoming years/decades. From my perspective this is essential to prevent a lot of species from extinction. With my channel I’m trying to inform and inspire people to go green and contribute to this. 🌍💪🏽
@@PBFoote-mo2zr Yes I did! The only thing they can do is to dig a hole into the ground. There are no natural shelters from my perspective😅

they live in all the sahara in the world this video filmed in saudi arabia .
LOL typical Algerians
@Ali Nos Are you assuming Saudi Arabia is in the Sahara ? This documentary has been filmed in the Sahara desert fyi... Also, most of these beautiful creatures live, in fact, in the algerian Sahara so basically he's right :)
That's wrong, actually the minority of these animals live in North Africa. There are no accurate statistics since Algeria is a closed country, so we believe that the animal is on the way to extinction in those areas due to the hostile nature of the North African population.
@@k-lam3953 Who filled your brains with this misleading information?

Amazing creature! apparently this wild and adorable animal endures to survive, there isn't any shelter, shade and enough food to eat, however, this is the way which these creatures have adopted to, their ears and veins are doing a crucial and sophisticated job. THANKS BBC

Clearly, there is enough food to survive or they wouldn't be alive.
I adore those ears!

Hand on my heart! My new favourite creature 😍.
First time I saw Fennec through this channel and really it's cute
なんという可愛らしさ。
They must be protected at all costs. 😍😍😍
better yet! they should no be bothered at all.
Indeed they should be protected and not be traded on illegal markets as much of Africa's endangered wildlife has become.
@@fionabrown3618 they are bred in captivity as pets,but they need a lot more care than a typical dog!
@@bugloverspiderlover8490 exactly why they should not be breed in captivity! Why breed them in captivity? Before these dogs were "discovered" were they endangered? They've lived in the Sahara, just as other wild animals before being hunted by people like you who breed them for profit and give nothing to the indigenous people who have lived alongside these wonderful creatures. We know the profits Westerns and Asians make on African wildlife and such. It is disgustingly deplorable! You steal them for how much? Then breed and sell them for how much?
how much you have contributed except for a single comment
Fennec Foxes are so cute.

Fennec foxes never drink water, they are able to hydrate through the food they consume!

...it's not even particularly unusual though?

These Fennec Foxes look like kitties 😸 😍
For the most part, foxes are running dogs hardware, and cats software.
Actually, foxes are dogs, while cats are cats, cats and dogs are entirely different families and are not closely related, both are classified within the order Carnivora, but dogs are specifically part of the suborder Caniformia alongside the bears, pinnipeds, weasels, otters, raccoons, and skunks, while cats are part of the suborder Feliformia along with the hyenas, civets, mongooses, and malagasy carnivorans, the biggest difference between the suborders Caniformia (Dog-Like Carnivorans) and Feliformia (Cat-Like Carnivorans) is the auditory bullae, the auditory bullae seen in caniforms are single-chambered or partially divided composed of just one bone, while the auditory bullae seen in feliforms are double-chambered composed of two bones joined by a septum, foxes are more dissimilar to cats than ever thought, foxes have more in common with other dogs than they do with cats, in addition to dogs having more in common with bears than with cats, more surprisingly, hyenas actually have more in common with cats than they do with dogs.
@@indyreno2933 Fascinating info! And maybe that's why my cats capture their prey with almost as much strategy, and definitely "murderous" intent, as hyenas 😹
I am so glad that foxes are finally called wild dogs in nature documentaries. They have been calling tigers and lions wildcats for ages now, and if tigers and lions can be called wildcats, Foxes should also be called wild dogs by every definition. Foxes and domestic dogs are more closely related to one another than tigers are to housecats. Foxes and Domestic dogs belong to the same family and sub-family, while Tigers and housecats belong to the same family but not the same sub-family. So if all members of Felidae are called Cats so should all members of Canidae be called dogs.
@Ruata Lungchuang, actually, you are incorrect about tigers and domestic cats not being in the same subfamily, they actually do belong to the same subfamily, all extant cat species belong to the subfamily Felinae, which is the only extant subfamily of cats, in fact, dogs (family Canidae) are the sole extant family of the superfamily Canoidea, much like cats (family Felidae) being the sole extant family of the superfamily Feloidea.
What? First of all, no one calls members of the Panthera family "wild cats" they are big cats.
2nd, foxes are not "dogs" they are canids, but not canines.
@Blobbert Mcblob, actually, foxes are dogs, dogs and domestic dogs are not the same thing, a dog is any carnivoran that belongs to the family Canidae, therefore, wolves, jackals, and wild species with the word "dog" in their name are also dogs, just like cats and domestic cats are not the same thing either, a cat is any carnivoran that belongs to the family Felidae, therefore cheetahs, pumas, jaguarundis, leopards, lions, tigers, snow leopards, clouded leopards, jaguars, manuls, lynxes, servals, caracals, ocelots, margays, and many wild species with the word "cat" in their name are cats, also, foxes are canines, all living dog species are canines because Caninae is the only living subfamily of dogs, in fact, there are only three subfamilies of dogs: †Hesperocyoninae (Primitive Dogs), †Borophaginae (Bone-Crushing Dogs), and Caninae (Modern Dogs), similarly, there are only three subfamilies of cats: †Proailurinae (Primitive Cats), †Machairodontinae (Saber-Toothed Cats), and Felinae (Modern Cats).
You need to seriously calm down. Its just an animal.
