No way is that a fox. The skeletal structure is all wrong.

Foxes have large ears, but those ears are more than twice as large as a fox's. The tail is more than half again as long as a fox tail, and a fox tail does not have a natural upward curve; fox tails are straight and point down. The neck is half again as long as a fox's, and the muzzle is completely the wrong shape, far too aquiline and pointy.

Moreover, I have seen similar such creatures filmed elsewhere in the country, and they all have that same skin/fur pelt, exactly that same color and combination of skin and stubble.

Exactly what that creature is I cannot say, but I know for an absolute certainty that that is no species of fox.

Trust me, this is the way foxes look without their beautiful fur. I’m a farm girl, I’ve been around foxes and foxhunting all my life, and had a pet fox for awhile when I was a kid. Recently I have seen a number of foxes with sarcoptic mange near our stable in Maryland, not an hour’s drive from where this unfortunate animal was caught. They’re all naked and creepy-looking like this. Yes, the ears, facial structure, tail length, etc. is all correct.

You don't know what the hell you are talking about. Check out these foxes' ears: .

Also, fox tails point whichever way the fox wants them to. More commonly, the fox points them down.

The neck seems long because of the fox's hairless condition. And the nose looks pointier without the hair coming from the sides.
