Photo by Kevin Schafer – @schaferpho @ナショナルジオグラフィック – You are looking at one of the rarest mammals in the world: the Darwin’s Fox. Charles Darwin collected a specimen of the species along the coast of southern Chile in 1834, and it has been named for him ever since. Current estimates suggest there may be no more than a few hundred left - but they are so rarely seen, and so devilishly hard to census accurately, that their real status is anyone’s guess. The largest population is thought to survive in the dense forests of Chiloe Island, south of Puerto Montt. But there also is some good news: several new mainland individuals have been discovered in the past few years through the use of camera traps. I hope to use this technique later this year to record the presence of these critically endangered animals. I found this one several years ago on the edge of the forest in the highlands of Chiloe - the only animal I saw in a week of searching. #fox #wildlife #criticallyendangered #endangeredspecies #Chiloe #darwinsfox
