The Paraguayan fox, or pampas fox, is a small animal from the canid family. It lives in grassy plains of South America and feeds on both animal and plant food.
The Paraguayan fox differs from other canids with its long legs and grayish-red coloration. It is important for nature because it hunts rodents and disperses plant seeds.
