Rüppell's fox (right)</div></div></div></div></div> <p>Rüppell's fox is a small fox, measuring 66 to 74 cm (26 to 29 in) in total length, including a tail measuring 27–30 cm (11–12 in) long. There is no pronounced sexual dimorphism, but males appear slightly larger than females. Both sexes are reported to have an average weight of 1.7 kg (3.7 lb).<sup id="cite_ref-Lariviere2001_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Lariviere2001-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Their coat is sandy with some brown, ticked with numerous white hairs, and fading from reddish along the middle of the back to pure white on the animal's underparts and on the tip of its tail. The flanks are also paler. The head has a more rusty tone on the muzzle and forehead, with dark brown patches on the sides of the muzzle, stretching up towards the eyes. The chin and the sides of the face are white. The whiskers are long, reaching 7 cm (2.8 in).<sup id="cite_ref-Lariviere2001_6-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Lariviere2001-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Its relatively small legs are beige in color, with individual black hairs that turn lighter to white towards the legs. The soles are heavily coated with fur that fully covers the pads, an adaptation to extremes of temperature in the desert,<sup id="cite_ref-Sheldon1992_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Sheldon1992-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> that probably helps to distribute its weight and move easily on sand. The back has a black speckling, resulting in a thick black patch at the base of the tail, which is bushy with a white tip. The fur is very soft and fluffy in two coats, a heavier denser winter coat and a thinner summer coat.<sup id="cite_ref-Cuzin2004_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Cuzin2004-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The females have three pairs of <a href="/wiki/Mammae" class="mw-redirect" title="Mammae">mammae</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Kingdon_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Kingdon-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Similar to other desert-dwelling foxes, Rüppell's fox has large ears to cool it off.
