## Appearance

The Fennec Fox's ears constantly passively move upwards and sideways, and its expression changes very briefly when it whines.

### Current (S2)

The "*Season 2*" era Fennec Fox has a golden tan base with a slightly tinted color for the head. It has a triangular snout with a black nose, a tail, and two ears. There is fur covering the Fennec Fox's body and tail, with some areas being a light beige. The tail has dark-brown fur at its tip.

### Gold Trim

The Gold Trim Fennec Fox looks rather cat-like. It has a wider face and slightly larger eyes. The ears individually have a patch of gold within them, and the cheeks are golden. The nose is also a wide oval instead of a perfect circle, and the fur on the sides of the body is more even. It also has a smaller, un-spotted tail.

### Old (S1)

The Fennec Fox has a cream-coloured pelt, with tufted fur, a short, fluffy tail with two black spots and a narrow snout. It has an appearance similar to the Arctic Fox, but is differently coloured.

### Classic

The Classic Fennec Fox is a light yellow circle with darker sides and shadows under two large black eyes. It has a small oval snout topped with a black circle nose. The Fennec Fox has two massive darker ears, which have paler insides. A small oval tail can be seen at the back.

## Strategy

* As Fennec Fox, the easiest and most efficient method of leveling up is to consume Melon slices and Watermelon slices in the Desert biome.
	+ Melon slices can be found in patches of Quicksand and in Oases. By pressing `S` and directing Water Pods onto them, the whole Melons will explode into edible slices.
		- However, the player must be cautious of Desert predators such as the Komodo Dragon and Blackwidow Spider, as they can move fast in quicksand and could easily kill the player in any of the aforementioned terrain forms.
	+ Watermelon slices can be found in lava pools across the Desert, which are randomly scattered around. Using the same strategy as with Melons, the player can create Watermelon slices. Watermelons also require less water to explode, so keep this in mind if the player has a low water bar.
* Eating Mangoes, which are commonly located near Venus Flytraps, is an alternative farming source. Since the Venus Flytrap can reduce the Health Bar of the player, they must be careful if they are on low health from a predator or other entity.
* The Fennec Fox has the Passive Ability of seeing animals that are inside hiding holes, from the outside. The player should use this to their advantage and avoid hiding holes that are inhabited by predators.
* Should a predator attempt to pursue the player, they should use the Whine ability to stun and slow down the chaser. Since the Whine moves quite slow and can be easy to avoid from a long distance, the player should only use it when in close range to a predator.
