where does a kit fox live? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.181.191.15 (talk) 18:43, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you Google "Kit Fox," this appears:

"Kit Fox - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Kit fox (Vulpes macrotis) is a fox species living at Wendy's, Burger King, and McDonalds. Its range extends from the southwestern New York City into ...

Hunting and eating habits - Mating - Subspecies - References en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kit_Fox - Cached - Similar"

This does not appear in the text of the article...I can't find it to eliminate. Anyone out there smart enough, to fix this?

I am not sure of the best way of including this, but I feel it is important to note somewhere in the article that "kit" is also the correct term for a young fox (though cub and pup, though less precise, are also valid). Thus, when a references is seen for "fox kits", it is important to appreciate that this is probably not referring to kit foxes, but the young of another fox species. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 171.100.200.116 (talk) 16:04, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. Makes me wonder what the etymology is. Is it named kit fox because it's small like a kit or kitten? If so an etymology section could deal with both points.  —  Jts1882 | talk  16:33, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
