Appeal For Old Fox Specimens for Historical Research

 

The Fox Study (f. 1976) is currently looking at Old British fox types such as the Scottish and Northern Hill/Greyhound/Mastiff  foxes and the smaller Cur, Terrier and stub-bred foxes.

 

Most museums no longer have mounted whole or mask specimens of these and this is why the study is appealing to people who have fox specimens labelled and dated as such to send in photographs and any information on the fox.

 

This can be used to visually assess what each looked like and this would be the first study of this type in the UK or Europe.

 

If anyone can help then I can be contacted by email at: blacktowercgh@hotmail,com or Face Book Messenger https://www.facebook.com/terry.hooper.31
