Red Fox Snoozing Snow

A snooze in snow

This fiery furball in a field of fresh snow gets no points for mastery of disguise, but don't fear for its safety. With a top running speed several times that of the average human, the red fox is equipped to escape most any threat to its fuzzy hide. Of course, all that sprinting requires a good bit of downtime. Foxes typically take 10 hours out of the day to sleep, whiling away the sunlit hours before waking at night for prime hunting time.
