What do baby arctic foxes look like when they are born?

Baby arctic foxes, known as kits, are born with a soft, dense coat of fur that is typically a dark gray or brown color. Their eyes are closed at birth, and they are small and helpless, weighing about 3 to 4 ounces. As they grow, their fur will gradually lighten to the characteristic white or bluish-gray color of adult arctic foxes, which helps them blend into their snowy environment. The kits rely on their mother for warmth and nourishment during the early weeks of life.
