Hoary foxes, Lycalopex vetulus, live in the neotropical region of the world. They are found in the Minas Gerais and the Motto Grosso regions in southwestern Brazil.
Biogeographic Regions: neotropical (Native )

Range Description
Physical Description
Hoary foxes are small, with a short muzzle and small teeth. Their fur is grayish in color, with a pale underbody and reddish ears and legs. There is a dark stripe running along the dorsal line and the tip tail. The exterior of the legs is yellow, and there is a black spot above the tail gland. The word "hoary" means having white or silvery color, which refers to the white hairs in the otherwise gray coat of these animals. The fur is short.
Hoary foxes have a small skull, with reduced carnassials and broad molars. Total body length is approximately 60 cm, with an average tail length of about 32 cm. Adult body weights range from 2.7 to 4 kg.
A closely relatd species, L. culpaeus, shows a positive, slight sexual dimorphism, with males being 5% larger than females. This is comparible to values reported for other foxes. Although such dimorphism has not been reported for L. vetulus, this evidnece suggests that slight sexual dimorphism in hoary foxes exists.
Range mass: 2.7 to 4 kg.
Average mass: 3.33 kg.
Range length: 585 to 640 mm.
Other Physical Features: endothermic ; homoiothermic; bilateral symmetry
Sexual Dimorphism: male larger

Hoary foxes live in tall grass steppes and in savanna interspersed with wooded "islands", as well as upland mountain areas in open woodland and brushland. Their habitat extends across the more open terrain of east-central Brazil. They live near cerrado vegetation.
Habitat Regions: terrestrial
Terrestrial Biomes: savanna or grassland ; forest ; scrub forest ; mountains

Habitat and Ecology
- Terrestrial
Trophic Strategy
Hoary foxes are omnivores, but they appear to be termite specialists. Termites of the genus Syntermes are their main food source and is found in about 89.5% of its feces. They feed on this termite year round. The other foods eaten by hoary foxes include rodents, fruit, grasshoppers, and dung beetles.
The diet of L. vetulus varies seasonally. Termites and small mammals make up the majority of their diet during the dry season, and other insects and fruit make up the majority during the wet season. The unique dental structure of this species allows these animals to eat small items. Their reduced carnassials and broad molars are good for crunching up an insectivorous diet.
Physical features of hoary foxes suggest adaptation to its habitat. A food niche separation mechanism between this species and other wild canids in that region has probably caused the dietary shift in this species to termites, as well as their small muzzel and dentition.
Animal Foods: birds; mammals; reptiles; insects; terrestrial non-insect arthropods
Plant Foods: fruit
Primary Diet: omnivore
- Dalponte, J. 1997. Diet of the hoary fox, "Lycalopex vetulus", in Mato Grosso, Central Brazil. Mammalia, 61 (4): 537-546.
Hoary foxes are generalist predators. They affect populations of small rodents and termites.
There is little information on predation of hoary foxes. However, it is parasitized by the vampire bat, Desmodus rotundus. It should be noted, however, that these bats do not kill the animals upon which they feed, so it isn't a predator in the traditional sense.

Life History and Behavior
Communication in hoary foxes is unknown, but is probably similar to other species of foxes.
Communication Channels: visual ; tactile ; acoustic ; chemical
Other Communication Modes: scent marks
Perception Channels: visual ; tactile ; acoustic ; chemical
Life Expectancy
Hoary fox lifespans have not been recorded.
Lifespan, longevity, and ageing
This species is monogamous, as are many fox species.
Mating System: monogamous
Breeding occurs in early fall. The gestation period is about two months, after which time the female gives birth to a litter of 2 to 4 kits. Hoary foxes often use abandoned armadillo dens for rearing their pups.
Breeding interval: Believed to breed once per year.
Breeding season: These animals breed in the early fall.
Range number of offspring: 2 to 4.
Average gestation period: 60 days.
Key Reproductive Features: iteroparous ; seasonal breeding ; gonochoric/gonochoristic/dioecious (sexes separate); sexual ; fertilization ; viviparous
Parental care in this species is not well documented. However, as is the case with most canids, the young are likely to be altricial. They are born in the den and remain there until they are able to venture out on their own. The mother undoubtedly provides her young with milk, grooming, and protection. Although the role of the father has not been documented for this species, in many other foxes, pups are cared for by both males and females. Because this species is monogamous, it is likely that the male plays some role in caring for the young.
Parental Investment: no parental involvement; altricial ; pre-fertilization (Protecting: Female); pre-hatching/birth (Provisioning: Female, Protecting: Female); pre-weaning/fledging (Provisioning: Female, Protecting: Female); pre-independence (Provisioning: Male, Female, Protecting: Male, Female)

Population Trend
Conservation Actions
The species is currently listed as Least Concern on the Brazilian Red List (Machado et al. 2005); it is classified as Near Threatened in the Minas Gerais state list.
Hunting and trade in wildlife is generally forbidden in Brazil. There is no specific hunting legislation for Hoary Foxes.
Specimens in Brazilian zoos at the time of writing include: Brasilia (1); São Paulo (1); Ribeirão Preto (1); Belo Horizonte (5); Teresina (1). High mortality rates due to starvation amongst captive cubs are reported. There are no current plans to reintroduce hoary foxes into the wild.
Gaps in Knowledge
Areas for further research include focusing on aspects of behavioural ecology, population status, geographical range, the potential role of disease in population regulation, and their status as potential reservoirs of veterinary (e.g., scabies, distemper) and public health (e.g., leishmaniasis, rabies) pathogens.
Relevance to Humans and Ecosystems
Hoary foxes are hosts for many diseases, some of which can be transmitted to domestic dogs, and some to humans. Also, hoary zorros are suspected of killing poultry and are therefore hunted.
Negative Impacts: injures humans (carries human disease); causes or carries domestic animal disease
- Lima , W., M. Guimaraes , I. Lemos . 1994. Occurrence of Angiostrongylus-Vasorum in the Lungs of the Brazilian Fox, "Dusicyon vetulus". Journal of Helminthology, 68 (1): 87-87.
Close relatives of the hoary fox are fur-bearers, and pelts of this species are likely collected as well. In addition, these animals are sometimes found in zoos.
Positive Impacts: body parts are source of valuable material; research and education; controls pest population
Hoary fox
The hoary fox (Lycalopex vetulus), also called raposinha-do-campo (Portuguese for "meadow fox") or the hoary zorro[citation needed], is a species of zorro or "false" fox endemic to Brazil. Unlike many other foxes, it feeds primarily on small invertebrates such as insects.
The hoary fox has a short muzzle, small teeth, a short coat, and slender limbs. The upper part of the body is grey, and the underside of the body is cream or fawn. The tail is black on the tip with a marked dark stripe along the upper surface, which in male animals, may extend all the way along the back to the nape of the neck. The ears and outside part of the legs are reddish or tawny, and the lower jaw is black. Some melanistic individuals have also been reported.[3][4]
It is small for a fox, weighing only 3 to 4 kilograms (6.6 to 8.8 lb), with a head and body length of 58 to 72 centimetres (23 to 28 in), and a tail 25 to 36 centimetres (9.8 to 14.2 in). Together with its slender form, the small size of the hoary fox makes it an agile and fast-running animal, while its relatively weak teeth adapt it to feeding on invertebrates, rather than larger prey.[4]
Behaviour and diet[edit]
Hoary foxes are nocturnal,[5] and largely solitary outside of the breeding season. It mainly eats insects, especially termites and dung beetles, but also may eat rodents, small birds, and fruit. Individuals have widely varying home ranges, depending on the local environment, but an average of 48 hectares (120 acres) has been reported from pastures in Mato Grosso.[4]
The hoary fox is native to south-central Brazil, although there are some recorded sightings from the north of the country, and Pleistocene fossils are known from Argentina. Although they may be found in more marginal habitats, they usually live in the cerrado, between 90 and 1,100 metres (300 and 3,610 ft) elevation, where there are open woodlands, bushlands, and savannahs that are smooth or scattered with trees.[4]
There are no recognised subspecies.
Females usually give birth to two to four pups in August to September, after a gestation period of around 50 days. The female prepares a den in which to give birth, sometimes using the burrows of other animals. Weaning occurs at around four months of age.[4]

THE "UNABLERS" (unable to deal with liquor, pensions, property taxes, oh, you know the list) are due back in the Capitol tomorrow to see what they're unable to deal with now.
This after a two-week break for elections in which they weren't running.
And guess what?
With just 10 session days left this year, there's renewed talk of finally dealing with failing infrastructure and underfunded mass transit.
How high's your confidence level?
Talk's gone on for years: Fix the infrastructure. It's a must. It's an economic issue. It's a matter of public safety. It's a top agenda item for the governor.

From left, Star Thrift Store Manager Michele Reed, Kristi Gregor of the Canadian Cancer Society, Susan Manuel, store production supervisor, and Candace Phoenix of the society hold up a chequer for $925 from Star Thrift Store, which was donated to the cancer society.
The Canadian Cancer Society Durham Unit recently got a donation thanks to the Star Thrift Store in Oshawa.
The two have been in collaboration since before the store opened in 2011. In that time Star Thrift Store has donated $2,225 through the donation and sale of clothing. This year a cheque was presented for $925.
"We really appreciate the continued support of Star Thrift Store," says Kristi Gregor, a fundraising co-ordinator with the society.
For 75 years, the Canadian Cancer Society has been working with Canadians to fight cancer in Canada, states the society.
This donation will help continue the fight to find a cure and support several initiatives including, funding research to outsmart cancer, providing information and delivering programs and services to prevent cancer and to support people living with cancer, their families and caregivers. It will also allow those at the society to advocate on behalf of Canadians on important health and cancer issues.
In 2012, due to population growth and aging, it's estimated that 186,400 Canadians will be diagnosed with cancer and about 75,700 will die from the disease, the society adds.
The Star Thrift Store in Oshawa is located at the Midtown Mall, 200 John Street West. For more information about the store call 905-728-7867.

Dear Provo High Students, Staff, and Patrons:
I am looking forward to my 29th year at Provo High and the opportunity of working with each of you. I have been a Bulldog for a very long time, and I consider it a privilege to come to work every day where I am surrounded by enthusiastic students, incredible staff, and supportive parents.
Our school mission is to help all students be successful. To that end, we are continuing with our academic intervention time from 7:00 – 7:55 a.m. Tuesdays – Fridays. During that time, teachers will be available to give students additional time and support for learning. We will also continue implementing our Freshman Mentoring Program (FMP) this year. All freshmen will take a class first semester from 7:20-7:55 a.m. Tuesdays-Fridays that will help them better prepare for success at Provo High—and for college and career afterward. Each freshman will also be assigned a student mentor who can help answer questions and offer support throughout the school year.
As a faculty and staff, we have five goals that we will continue to work on: 1- Developing effective professional learning communities, 2 – Preparing college and career-ready graduates, 3 – Teaching and using writing as a process for learning in every content area, 4 – Implementing meaningful Learning Targets in every classroom, and 5 – Using effective feedback practices and formative assessments of student learning.
The student government theme for the 2015-16 school year is "Rise." Many students and faculty members know that I am a Batman fan. I watched the earliest versions of Batman on television when I was a little girl, and I still follow the various incarnations of the superhero at the movie theater, in comic books, and on TV. There are many things I like about the concept of Batman: he doesn't have any special or magical powers, he is human, he works hard and shows great determination, he faces his fears, and he desires knowledge. To me he is a symbol of the human capacity to excel. When he falls, he works until he rises above his failures, his circumstances, and his mistakes. This is something I strive to do as well, and I hope that it can be something each of us can work on together this year. No matter what we already know or can do, we can "rise" to even greater heights, and if we make mistakes, we can "rise" above them.
I wish you all the very best year possible.
Mrs. Brown

You are right btickler, it could be some propaganda from the news source. However, its not like something like that couldn't happen.
Also you said 5th and Mission, is that close to 5th and Market ? Also what times of the day were you there, it also showed a demonstration against the war in that photo with the chess players ?
If this is a true story, its very sad. People's property was confiscated illegally in my opinion, and the whole situation was mishandled by the city, and police. Just my 2 cents for whatever its worth.
Ok a flat out ban on street chess is pretty ridiculous.
But as an evil business owner myself, I have to admit I would not want a lot of homeless or non-homeless people congregating in front of my business. It would hurt business.
Maybe not. It might depend on your particular business. People playing chess in front of it may have passers-by stopping, and then noticing your establishment.
This is very true and some downtown business owners are so uptight you would think they don't want anyone downtown! And of course some businesses are happy to have people hanging out in front of them.
But many others probably wouldn't appreciate it such as doctors offices, law offices, work out places, beauty salons where women might be afraid etc.
It's really just a matter of courtesy. I have had to ask people not to "hang out" in front of my business. I have done it in a nice way and the people were nice enough to listen to my request. Sometimes people aren't so nice and then rules need to be made.
What happened to US? Is it a police country now?
Well, it's Califorina. What did u expect?

Can't say as I have ever seen street chess in England. Maybe because it rains a lot. :-)
Of course its an agenda. Lol, to that one business owner. Perhaps all the chess players around the world should boycott his store, lets see how well his sales do then. LMAO.
That would have pretty much no influence at all on his sales.
cities these days only seem to be tailored to meeting consumerism and if you come to the city and want to indulge in a free pastime then you aint welcome i call this gentfification and unfortunately until we reclaim our urban spaces this attitude of economic apartheid is going to persist
5th and Mission is one block from 5th and Market.
Be warned: playing chess on the streets of San Francisco can lead into "violence and barbecuing".
Maybe thats why btickler hasn't seen the chess players?
It's been about ten years since I played there, but I didn't much like it as not only did I have a wager with the other player, but had to pay 'rent' to some thug as well.

Great plugin!
I have one small issue... I have several WoW US characters that have non-standard (i.e. unicode) letters in their names. (Specifically ï, î, ì, and ô)
This plugin will not let me add them. Being a software developer/web guy myself, I narrowed it down to "public static function is_id_valid($id)" in the wow.php file. This verifies all the letters of the ID are "word characters" per regex, which obviously unicode characters are not so this always returns false for me.
To do some testing I forced this to always return true. It would then accept my character's name and retrieve the information from the WoW Armory, but the links to to the armory pages (in the plugin management and on the blog itself) had unreadable letters in them (something to do with unicode encoding I am sure).
Thanks for any help fixing this!

Since I am out of photo space for this blog, after considering a number of options, I have decided to start Crafty Tokyo Mama II. I know, I know, how imaginative is that? I was going to open separate blogs for each area of my life, but you know what? That is a real pain to set up so let's just forget that and keep on with the same format, only at another address. Please come over and see what I've been up to this past month. I just realized there are a couple more things I've made that didn't make it into that post, so once I get pictures taken, I'll share them with you.
Please come and see my new blog, and sign up for e-mail alerts if you like so you never miss a post. You'll find me HERE!

In my opinion, this plugin is useless unless you $pay$ for the premium version, as you can only send text emails to subscribers-- fine if you want to look like you are still living in the 1980's. The option to add html to format emails -- not that mind boggling an option really -- will cost $39 upfront plus a monthly fee - indefinitely- not much value.
I have no prob whatsoever that people want to earn something off their plugins. But I resent the fact that the free version has no formatting is buried deep within the product description. I feel that this this sullies the WordPress brand. I think there should be a standard that if a plugin is really more just a demo it should be made more clear upfront. Yes it's a free download but my time is valuable - a good deal of which was spent on installing and testing this plugin which now is in the trash heap/

Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney says he would sell off the remaining U.S. shares in GM, which the Obama administration has held for more than three years. Taxpayers still own 26% of GM. If the U.S. Treasury sold its remaining stake at GM's current share price, it would amount to a $16 billion loss on the $49.5 billion bailout. "The president is delaying the sale of the shares to try and avoid the story that the taxpayer took another loss," Romney told the Detroit News. He also added that the government's corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) program, which will nearly double fuel-economy standards to 54.5 mpg (translating into the high 30s for window-sticker EPA figures), has the government pushing too many cars that the market doesn't want, such as electric vehicles. The Obama campaign fired back, saying Romney is "the last person who should be offering advice" about Detroit automakers. Romney wanted GM and Chrysler to finance their 2009 bankruptcies with minimal federal support, but opponents contend that at the time, no major private lender would offer terms.

- RT @SashKindred: A nice bit of lunch from a nice little healthy fast food outlet in Sheffield. Then time to race 200IM. #Rio2016 🏊🇧🇷 https:…
Situated in the heart of England, Sheffield presents itself as an ideal location for living and working and offers one of the best value environments to live in.
Research shows that the city is not only 25% less expensive to live in than London, it is actually 10% cheaper than the national average. When you factor in the fact that Sheffield is the only city with a National Park within its boundary, that's at least two good reasons for living here!
Whether it's the urban lifestyle of the city centre, a family home in a leafy suburb, or a cottage in the rural Peak District, Sheffield offers something to suit everyone.
An abundance of fashionable apartments and developments mean city living is a convenient, fun and affordable option for those who enjoy and appreciate busy city life – all in one of the safest cities in England.
If you prefer to live further out, then Sheffield's many suburbs offer a variety of choice of types of property, from traditional terraces, Edwardian Villas, 1930's semis, through to modern build apartments and family homes. With an average travel to work time of just 23 minutes, plus excellent transport links; it offers great value for money.
If the rural life appeals, you may be surprised that you can have this and yet still enjoy a reasonable commute into the city centre – with the Peak District, Hope Valley and attractive market towns on your doorstep, the choice is endless.
The city offers a wide variety in terms of education choices, in both the state and private sector, with 13 popular private schools within Sheffield or in easy commuting distance of the city.
Sheffield is at the forefront of educational developments, with the establishment of one of the country's first University Technical Colleges, due to open in 2013. This will offer an expanded curriculum focusing on industry requirements and practical business skills, as well as high academic standards. For further information on schools in the city, please see Sheffield City Council's website.
If you are benchmarking the city on behalf of a client, or making an investment case for your business, contact us on +44 (0)114 223 2407 email@example.com as we may be able to assist.

A History of Obama Showing Real Interest in Awesome Things
Like Mogwai. And Batarangs!
After we compiled a photo slideshow of President Obama feigning interest in a variety of mundane things last month, somebody apparently felt bad for him and wanted to give him some awesome things to look at. Awesome things like a Mogwai, and hatching velociraptor eggs, and the Hammer of Thor. Above, the leader of the free world considers a Batarang.

text: 000 FXUS63 KGLD 240419 AFDGLD Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Goodland KS 1019 PM MDT SAT JUL 23 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 1018 PM MDT Sat Jul 23 2016 With line of storms decaying just west of the Tri-State Area have lowered rainfall chances for the evening. Does look like some showers/t-storms may move in overnight accompanying the upper level short wave trough. UPDATE Issued at 848 PM MDT Sat Jul 23 2016 Increased chances for rainfall over East Central Colorado given the line of showers/t-storms to the west. Am not too sure how far east the line will last given the upper level short wave trough accompanying it remains just west of the Tri-State Area until after midnight. Therefore extrapolated out in time a few hours where the line of storms should be, then have chances for rainfall declining after that as the environment becomes more stable. As the short wave trough moves east into the Tri-State Area after midnight kept chances for rainfall going over the west and northwest given the nose of the low level jet over that part of the area. UPDATE Issued at 707 PM MDT Sat Jul 23 2016 Allowed heat advisory to expire. Hill City is still meeting criteria, but all other sites in the advisory area have fallen below criteria. Hill City should cool below criteria within this hour. && .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Sunday) Issued at 110 PM MDT Sat Jul 23 2016 Isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms will continue through tonight and Sunday. Synoptic scale forcing remains rather nebulous with only weak shortwave trough rotating around the anticyclone centered over the Four Corners. A surface trough located from near Norton to Leoti this afternoon may be the focus for initiation but so far little evidence seen in visible satellite imagery and short term models not very supportive either. Better chances may come tonight with scattered convection coming out of Colorado. Storm organization will be limited by weak deep layer sheer but cant rule out an isolated hail/wind threat with stronger storms. As has been the case lately, expect storms to persist through the night followed by a lull Sunday morning...then gradually increasing again Sunday afternoon. Temperatures on Sunday will be slightly cooler with upslope surface winds...so will let the heat advisory expire at 00z tonight with no plan to reissue for Sunday. .LONG TERM...(Sunday night through Saturday) Issued at 216 PM MDT Sat Jul 23 2016 Temperatures are expected to be either near normal or somewhat above normal through the long term. Forecast focus has been on trying to identify the periods with the greatest possibility of thunderstorms and resulting higher QPF. Westerly flow aloft with embedded short wave troughs remains over the northern third of the CONUS through the middle of the week. During the latter part of next week into next weekend the upper pattern becomes more amplified as the high pressure center aloft retrogrades over the desert southwest/intermountain region with a ridge amplifying over the northern Rockies. In response, a trough axis deepens over the Mississippi valley region. The result is a few short wave disturbances are expected to move through the central High Plains region, but will transition from a W to E path to more of a NW to SE trajectory. The CR XTNDED INIT (a.k.a. Superblend) POP/QPF grids seems to lag somewhat behind the GFS/ECMWF during transitional periods. So have made some blending changes to the init in an effort to try and compensate for transitional differences and to maintain a greater degree of consistency with the prior forecast. The periods with the highest possibilities of precipitation are SUN NT, TUE NT, and FRI NT. Model solutions are at least fairly consistent in identifying these periods in which the higher POP and QPF values coincide with the stronger short wave troughs transition the forecast area. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Sunday evening) Issued at 525 PM MDT Sat Jul 23 2016 VFR conditions forecast for the TAFs. The majority of the thunderstorm activity will be well south and west of the TAF sites this evening and Sunday afternoon. Sunday morning there may be some storms that develop near KMCK, but do not have enough confidence in storm coverage to place a mention in the TAF at this time. Otherwise winds will continue to be from the north as the cold front moves through the TAF sites tonight. && .GLD Watches/Warnings/Advisories... KS...NONE. CO...NONE.

Carpets were filthy, shower was filthy, Television did not work properly, completely outdated and unattractive and requested a smoking room and had to stay in a non-smoking room and step outside in a bad neighborhood to smoke. Couldn't even get a cup of coffee here.

If you're looking for very good, very cheap, this place is a 10! Not fancy at all, but clean, cold A/C, refrigerator, microwave, TV (27" 4:3 with 10 channels), and friendly. Just the basics, but everything you need is there. They use far too much room freshener, so open the windows and doors for 15 minutes to let in fresh air. Room was simple but quite comfortable! Be sure to walk around the gorgeous lake just behind. Best deal in years. ...

A forestry worker was seriously injured when the skidder he
was operating rolled more than 50 metres down a steep hill at
a logging site in Marlborough today.
The 47-year-old Nelson man lost control of the skidder -
which is used to haul felled trees - at the edge of a road
near Canvastown about 1.30pm.
He suffered multiple serious injuries as the skidder rolled.
The man was stabilised by St John ambulance staff and an
intensive care paramedic from the Nelson Marlborough Rescue
Helicopter, which was able to land at the forestry skid site.
He was airlifted to Nelson Hospital.

"Our society is scared to teach teens and young people about safe sex, and most importantly, consent."

As long as you don't call it "rape."
by Erica Hellerstein Dec 17, 2014
An anonymous official in UVA's Interfraternity Council spoke to ThinkProgress about proposed "party regulations" to curb binge drinking and campus sexual assault.

No matter how many politicians tried to distance themselves from Todd Akin, some of his views about sexual assault aren't entirely unusual.

Helping liberals understand where their ideological foes are coming from.
by Tara Culp-Ressler Dec 7, 2014
The backlash to the Rolling Stone article has prompted a larger discussion about whether society is too quick to believe stories about rape.
by Aviva Shen Dec 7, 2014
Rolling Stone's backpedaling on a cover story about rape at UVA could make it even harder for rape victims to get justice.
by Tara Culp-Ressler Dec 4, 2014
The backlash to a recent story about a gang rape at UVA has been partially based on the notion that the story is too horrific to be true. Research says otherwise.
by Carimah Townes Dec 3, 2014
Recaps of the year can be so silly.
by Tara Culp-Ressler Dec 2, 2014
The media has a longstanding practice of avoiding printing the names of rape victims. But some survivors want to take a different approach.

Makes a Great Birthday party decoration
This castle was a perfect addition to my grandaughter's birthday party! She absolutely loved it!! Very happy with the total appearance and size. Highly recommend it for any little girl's party.
The product was easy to use and did just what it said it would do. It looked like the advertisement. Our 3 yr old birthday party participants thought it was great!
It's very nice and funny for my baby who has 3 years old.
