I recently posted this picture of canines in my yard in a comment.
It’s not a good picture. There are two animals who were both at least slightly moving and the photo was taken by my phone at a distance. My wife thinks they’re foxes but I’m not sure.
That said, whatever they are, there’s a cub in the background. It’s pretty cute. A friend of mine described it as “aww, little blurry guy.” They weren’t wrong.
In the end the question is, were they foxes or coyotes?
Probably thinking of the red fox, which looks. Well. Red. Like this:
However gray foxes are , well. Gray.
