Species: Difference between revisions

Vulpines are a species of anthropomorphic bipedal mammals that superficially resemble the various genera of foxes. According to the [[Bipedaliforma|Unified Bipedalism Theory]], they belong to to the species ''Alepis alepis''. Vulpine males average a height of 5 ft 5 in (1.66 m) while females average around 5 ft (1.54 m.) The vulpine senses are finely tuned, especially their eyesight, and their brains are capable of notably quick thinking and high memory retention. The species does not possess a subcutaneous fat layer and relies on their fur to adapt to different climates. Northern vulpines have longer, dense fur, while southern vulpine fur is short and somewhat oily to assist in swimming. Typically fur colors include mixtures of red, brown, white, and grey in patterns similar to nonsentient foxes. Both types of vulpines can grow hair on their heads. While birth defects are rare, vulpines are much shorter lived than other species. They reach middle age around 40 and their lack of subcutaneous fat and small hearts mean their physical health deteriorates quickly after this point. The species is also susceptible to a large number of diseases.
