你在哪里能找到这个可爱的生物?(Where can you find this cute creature?)

海峡岛国家公园是一种名为岛狐的独特亚种的家园。这些小狐狸只在加利福尼亚海岸外的海峡群岛上发现,是北美最小的犬科动物。岛上的狐狸已经适应了岛上的环境,并发展出了独特的特征,如与其他狐狸物种相比,体型更小、尾巴更短、皮毛更轻。不幸的是,由于人类的影响,岛狐一度濒临灭绝,但保护工作已经成功稳定了它们的种群。
原文:
The Channel Island National Park is home to a unique subspecies called the island fox. These small foxes are found only on the Channel Islands off the coast of California and are the smallest canids in North America. The island foxes have adapted to the island’s environment and have developed unique characteristics, such as smaller size, shorter tails, and lighter coats compared to other fox species. Unfortunately, the island foxes were once on the brink of extinction due to human impact, but conservation efforts have managed to stabilise their populations.
