Professionally Tanned • Silky Soft Fur • Naturally Unique Desert Coloration

Includes: 1 Genuine Tanned Kit Fox Pelt

✦ Naturally Beautiful & Truly Unique

Kit Fox pelts have a subtle beauty unlike larger, more heavily furred fox species. Their natural coloration reflects the arid landscapes they inhabit, producing an attractive mixture of grizzled gray, yellow-gray, buff, tan, and warm orange tones.

The back is generally darker than the remainder of the coat, with black-tipped and naturally banded guard hairs creating the characteristic grizzled appearance.

Additional natural features may include:

• Silky-soft, fine fur

• Grizzled to yellowish-gray coloration

• Darker shading along the back

• Lighter belly and inner ears

• Tan or gray backs of the ears

• Buff to orange tones around the ear bases

• Warm coloration along the shoulders, sides, flanks, and chest

• Distinctive darker markings around the nose

Every pelt is naturally different. Variations in color, markings, size, and fur texture are part of the character and beauty of genuine natural fur.

✦ Professionally Tanned

Quality tanning makes all the difference.

These Kit Fox pelts feature a professional, soft, and pliable tan designed to provide an attractive finished pelt that's enjoyable to handle and suitable for a variety of projects.

The leather is flexible rather than stiff, while the fur remains smooth, silky, and exceptionally soft to the touch.

✦ The Kit Fox

Native to the arid and semi-arid regions of the Southwestern United States and northern and central Mexico, the Kit Fox is one of the smallest fox species occurring in North America and among the smallest members of the Vulpes genus worldwide.

Their petite size and desert-adapted coloration give these pelts an appearance quite different from Red Fox, Grey Fox, and other commonly available fox pelts.

Typical Kit Fox Size

Weight: Approximately 3–6.5 lbs.
Body Length: Approximately 17"–21"
Tail Length: Approximately 9"–13"

Unlike the Grey Fox, the Kit Fox does not have the distinctive dark stripe running the length of the tail.

✦ Perfect For

The combination of manageable size, attractive coloration, and professionally tanned leather makes these pelts an excellent choice for:

Rustic & Western Décor
Add authentic natural character to cabins, lodges, Western rooms, and wildlife-themed spaces.

Fur Crafts & Creative Projects
The soft, pliable leather makes these pelts suitable for a variety of specialty fur and craft projects.

Costumes, LARP & Historical-Inspired Projects
A unique natural fur option for costume accents, character designs, primitive-inspired projects, and creative builds.

Educational Displays
An interesting example of a small North American fox species adapted to desert and semi-desert environments.

Fur & Wildlife Collections
An excellent addition for collectors looking to represent a wider variety of North American fur-bearing species.

✦ Pelt Condition

These are attractive, professionally tanned natural pelts. Because they are genuine animal hides rather than manufactured products, minor imperfections should be expected.

A pelt may have:

• Tiny holes in the face

• Small holes elsewhere in the hide

• Minor natural or processing imperfections

These imperfections are generally small and do not significantly detract from the overall appearance or usefulness of the pelt.

Important

These pelts do not have full legs or feet with claws.

They are sold as professionally tanned fur pelts and are not prepared as complete taxidermy skins.

✦ No Two Pelts Are Exactly Alike

One of the greatest appeals of genuine fur is its natural variation.

Coloration may range from warmer yellow and buff tones to cooler gray and grizzled shades. Fur density, markings, size, shape, and individual characteristics will also vary.

These differences are natural—not defects—and help make every Kit Fox pelt one of a kind.

Bring the distinctive beauty of the American Southwest into your collection or next project with a genuine professionally tanned Kit Fox pelt.

With its petite proportions, silky-soft fur, subtle desert coloration, and naturally individual markings, the Kit Fox offers a look that is difficult to duplicate with any other North American fox species.
