Urocyon cinereoargenteus

Mammals of the La Selva–Braulio Carrillo Complex, Costa Rica

“…Apparently these foxes are found throughout the country except for the Atlantic lowlands. The biology of gray foxes, based primarily on studies in the eastern United States, recently was reviewed by Fritzell and Haroldson (1982).…”

Seasonal Variation of Coyote Diet in Northwestern Wyoming: Implications for Dietary Overlap with Canada Lynx?

“…Bobcats will sometimes create more controlled repeated scrapes with both hind feet and deposit urine or scat at one end (Elbroch et al 2012). Scrapes are not commonly associated with gray foxes, though they, like coyotes and bobcats, will often deposit scats in groups (Fritzell and Haroldson 1982). C:N ratios vary across ecosystems and through food webs, reflecting underlying organismal allocations to major molecules and chemical structures; terrestrial vascular plants tend to have high C:N ratios (Meyers 1994, Prahl et al 1994 while animals tend to be much more nutrient rich and therefore have much lower C:N ratios (Sterner and Elser 2002).…”

Mammals Of the Grand Staircase–Escalante National Monument: A Literature and Museum Survey

“…Ears prominent. Black mane on black-tipped tail (Fritzell and Haroldson 1982). Total length: 800-1125; length of hind foot: 100-150; length of tail: 275-443; length of ear: 65-70; body mass: 3-7 kg (Clark and Stromberg 1987).…”

“…Likely monogamous mating system. Gestation about 53 days with average litter size 4 (Fritzell andHaroldson 1982, Clark andStromberg 1987).…”

“…DISTRIBUTION.-Wooded, brushy, and rocky habitats from S Canada to N Venezuela and Colombia, excluding mountainous W U.S., Great Plains, and E Central America (Fritzell and Haroldson 1982). Range in S and E Utah (Durrant 1952).…”
