Chile! The fox can be found on the mainland coast and ChiloƩ Island. Darwin first encountered the fox in 1834 and believed it to be a subspecies of the South American gray fox, however, it since has been established as its own species. They are critically endangered due to their small population of under 300 mature individuals and the tiny zone of habitat. About 90% live on the island of ChiloƩ. Unfortunately, like for most animals, human impacts create the biggest challenge for the fox's future.
