The Desert Fox is similar in size to the swift fox, but with much larger ears. They inhabit the desert area of the Trans-Pecos.
Both the desert fox and the swift fox are called kit fox, and some biologists believe one is only a subspecies of the other.
The desert fox is lighter in color than the swift and does not have the black spot at the base of the tail.
