Bat-eared fox

The bat-eared fox (''Otocyon megalotis'') is a species of fox found on the African savanna, named for its large ears,〔(Paleobiology Database: ''Otocyon'' Basic info ).〕 which are used for thermoregulation.〔 Fossil records show this canid to first appear during the middle Pleistocene, about 800,000 years ago.〔
The bat-eared fox (also referred to as big-eared fox, black-eared fox, cape fox, and Delalande’s fox) has tawny fur with black ears, legs and parts of the pointed face. It averages 55 cm in length (head and body), with ears 13 cm long. It is the only species in the genus ''Otocyon''.〔 The name ''Otocyon'' is derived from the Greek words "''otus''" for ear and "''cyon''" for dog, while the specific name "''megalotis''" comes from the Greek words "''mega''" for large and "''otus''" for ear.
== Range and Distribution ==
There are two allopatric populations (subspecies) in Africa. One is the ''Otocyon megalotis virgatus'', which occurs from Ethiopia and southern Sudan to Tanzania. The other population, ''Otocyon megalotis megalotis'', occurs in the southern part of Africa. It ranges from southern Zambia and Angola to South Africa; and extends as far east as Mozambique and Zimbabwe, spreading into the Cape Peninsula and toward Cape Agulhas. Home ranges vary in size from 0.3 to 3.5 km2.〔
