After admiring the meerkats for a while, I made my way to the fennec fox exhibit.
Two fennec foxes were lying on their perch, curled into balls and snuggled up together, lazily sleeping.
They were tiny and exquisite, almost the size of rabbits!
Compared to the average red fox, their fur was much lighter in color, a light yellow that helps them camouflage in the desert.
The most striking feature was their unusually large ears, which seemed to be even larger than their faces, giving them a wonderfully cute charm.
In both fur color and the feature of big ears, they strongly resembled Eevee from Pokémon before its evolution.
The tiny and adorable fennec foxes also attracted many visitors to stop by. No one was immune to their enchanting sleeping poses, with exclamations of "Kawaii!" and "Ah, I'm dying!" echoing around as they took out their phones to snap photos.
"Wow, what big ears!"
