    Impressive shot, and equally cool that you found your way around identifying species so quickly. Posted 13 years ago

The Bat-Eared Fox

The bat-eared fox is a species of fox found on the African savanna, named for its large ears, which are used for thermoregulation. Fossil records show this canid to first appear during the middle Pleistocene, about 800,000 years ago. It is considered a basal canid species, resembling ancestral forms of the family.
