type:"Fox"

Fox is a white creature type used for cards depicting carnivorous mammals, characteristically having upright ears, a pointed snout, and a long bushy tail. Foxes are related to dogs and wolves.

For a long time Arctic Foxes from Ice Age was the only existing Fox card. This changed when the Kitsune (Japanese: (きつね) ) from Kamigawa were introduced.

After Innistrad added the Silverchase Fox and Theros Vulpine Goliath, the creature type became more common.

Storyline

Dominaria

Foxes were one of the animals to survive during the Ice Age (Arctic Foxes).

Eldraine

Giant foxes are used as mounts by Elves on the plane of Eldraine (Maraleaf Rider, Wildborn Preserver, Wildwood Tracker). Some foxes have the ability to fly (Flutterfox).

Kaladesh

Foxes artifacts are some of the works made by lifecrafters (Filigree Familiar (Kaladesh)).

Kamigawa

Even though the fox-folk of Kamigawa live within the Jukai Forest, they have the closest relations with the humans.[1] Even more so than the daimyo's Soratami advisors. Kitsune are long-lived beings with very strong beliefs in their traditions. These Kitsune always have a class beside the Fox subtype.

Ikoria

Innistrad

On expeditions through Ashmouth, the hunters of Devilthorn Lodge rely on the cleverness of foxes to counteract the mischief of devils (Devilthorn Fox).

Plane of Mountains and Seas

Some foxes of the Plane of Mountains and Seas are sapient and appear in spirit form (e.g. Nine-Tail White Fox). It's still unknown if any regular foxes exist on this plane.

Theros

In Setessa, foxes feed on hydras, giants, and massive serpents becoming giants (Vulpine Goliath). The fox is also the symbol for Bassara Tower, a watchtower near the Summer Nexus.[2]
