Arabian Red Fox – Judah

Whilst at Judah in the early morning just as it was getting light, I spotted an Arabian Red Fox on the large sandstone cliffs. It was quite a distance from me and was aware of my presence and miainly kept partially hidden before moving off. I regularly see Arabian Red Fox bit they are almost always in Dhahran where I live and I had not seen them at Judah on previous visits. They are a common species in Saudi Arabia and occur throughput the Kingdom. The Arabian Red fox has very large ears for its size and is very thin and sandy coloured compared to the European Red Fox.
