Some of the basic adaptations of the desert fox are its brown thin coat. This is because it needs to stay as cool as possible in the desert. The coat reflects heat in the daytime and insulates the fox at night. They have big ears as it helps to dissipate heat on hot days. It is also able to use it's tale to turn direction quickly when running.
