The Crab Eating Fox (Cerdocyonthous) or Savannah Fox is the only fox that exists in Guyana. It grows up to 8 kg in weight and is a tawny grey in colour with a moderately bushy tail, black at the tip. These foxes range from the Amazon Basin in Colombia, Venezuela, the Guianas, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay. They can be found in a range of habitat though their preference appears to be savannah and scrubby areas. They are known to enter rainforest especially if it borders the savannah or open areas.
Foxes are nocturnal and often seen
