The Square-Headed Tibetan Fox: Plateau Predator
Describes the Tibetan fox, focusing on its unusual, square-shaped facial appearance and the evolutionary purpose behind it. Its dense, elongated fur and small ears are adaptations that help it survive the extreme cold of the Tibetan Plateau, one of the highest and harshest environments on Earth.
The overview highlights the fox’s reliance on the plateau pika, a keystone prey species. Tibetan foxes often hunt cooperatively with their mates or trail larger predators to catch pikas as they flee their burrows.
It also notes that the species is currently not endangered, but faces an indirect threat from widespread efforts to reduce pika populations, which can undermine the fox’s primary food source.
