You can actually have this animal as a pet!

CAIRO – 3 August 2017:We love our puppies, kittens, sometimes hamsters or even tortoises if you love TMNT and have great expectations, but people have different tastes, so here is a suggestion for a new pet that is not so common…

Fennec Fox: This beautiful creature with its adorably huge Dumbo-like ears lives in the Sahara and North Africa (which is actually where we are, how awesome is that!).

According to the website the Spruce, Fennec Fox is not domesticated, which means it would need training and you will need to take precautions against its escape, but other than that they act pretty much like dogs and live up to 14 years!

As playful as a dog and as mysterious as a kitten, the Fennec Fox is like no pet you have ever had, but be careful because they have so much energy and they love digging, which means you will have to make some adjustments and provide a secure outlet for their energy.

Now we leave you with the adorable creature in action!
