They had a fun corner in the natural history museum in Bern about the taxidermy process, and they showed the effect the eyes have on how realistic or uh. disturbing. a mount is

The first fox had all black eyes. Not super realistic for those who know red foxes usually have orange or greenish eyes, but still pretty cute

The second one had normal fox eyes. I think they could've gone with a size or two smaller, but still. Regular orange eyes with a vertical pupil as it should be. But then. Oh. Oh no.

Human eyes 👁👁

Commission work, red fox with a replica curlew egg. This vixen was taken at the site of a curlew nest, these are a red listed bird here so a game keeper took her to protect the nest

I am fully licensed, all pieces are legally held and sourced

It's here!!! Wild platinum European red fox. Lighting is terrible today so these are the best pics I could get. Will take some better ones outside when it's not raining.

This fox is my holy grail. I have been obsessed with these wild platinum foxes since I saw a photo of one in 2011. I've always wanted the chance to examine one up close so getting this beauty is very exciting. The fur on it is so interesting. It has the coarse texture of a European fox but with slightly longer guard hairs and a thick woolly undercoat like a farmed American red fox (NARF). You can definitely tell that it's a European x NARF hybrid!

Hybrids are becoming more common in the UK and parts of Europe. In the past this was the result of farm foxes escaping/being released, but more recently it's due to pet NARFs that escape/are abandoned and breed with the native wild foxes. Some of these foxes are direct hybrids, but many are the result of hybridisation many generations back. Here's some more examples of wild platinum foxes from the UK:

What's also interesting is that she has the fawn spots on the ears commonly seen in European foxes. The exact cause of these spots is unknown, but this strongly suggests it's a distinct white spotting pattern.

So it’s a fox, probably a red fox, but what kind? Someone suggested cascade red fox but given that there’s only an estimated 50 remaining that seems unlikely.

I also visited the natural history museum in Basel, Switzerland! They also had so many cool and well made mounts on display
