The phrase "as shy as a fox" is a simile. It compares the level of shyness to that of a fox using "as," which is a characteristic feature of similes. Metaphors, on the other hand, make direct comparisons without using "like" or "as." In this case, the comparison highlights the perceived shy nature of foxes.
