Two rare bat-eared foxes have arrived at Chester Zoo, marking a significant event after more than 30 years.
They are named Maasai and Malindi, and their distinct feature is their enormous bat-like ears that are over 13 centimeters long.
The foxes have traveled over 500 miles from a zoo in Paris to Chester Zoo, UK.
They will be living with 12 porcupines in a new section of the zoo called Heart of Africa.
In the wild, bat-eared foxes are typically found in the grasslands and savannahs of southern and eastern Africa.
These foxes are facing threats from habitat loss caused by human activities such as farming, urban development, and hunting.
Their large ears act like satellite dishes, helping them detect prey accurately and stay cool by shedding heat through blood vessels.
The zookeepers are hopeful of introducing a male bat-eared fox in the future to aid in species conservation efforts.
