What fox like animal has big ears and a pointy face?

Question

My boyfriend and I live in west TN and the other night we were going for a ride when we came upon an animal whose colors looked similar to that of a fox. It was about the size of a house cat (I'm not sure if the animal was still young, or if it was an adult), it had big ears and I want to say it had a pointy face, but I didn't get that good of a look.

The reason I'm asking is because neither my boyfriend nor myself have seen this animal before.

I'm curious as to if its common in west TN.

Thank you =)

Answer 1

most likely a juvenile Chupacabra.

Those things are spreading out farther and farther north and east, just like all mexicans are.

Whenever you see one, try to shoot it.

My advice is the same for chupacabras as well.

Answer 2

the kit fox maybe?
