looks like a fox with ringworm (no tail hair)

poor thing!

here's a fox with a full feathered tail.

Hmmmm, could be. But it didn't have big pointy ears. They were smaller and rounder than that.

[Biciclista]

its ears certainly don't look right. Maybe the poor creature was in a fire and its eartips were damaged too?
and instead of ringworm, that's scarred tail?

That is one weird looking animal- I can't tell what it is!
Foxes are nowhere near as big as large labs. Doesn't look coyote, or cat, or even dog.

We have a whole family of poor mangy red foxes in our neighborhood lately- apparently the mother was injured and her adolescent cubs all scattered about into people's yards, including ours. Mostly they're being left alone to wander off and find homes somewhere. Today my neighbor told me she saw a 3 legged fox go up our driveway. It's been guessed that they don't have rabies, but are mangy. Poor things.

The MI Wildlife Conservancy said they think it is a fox with a severe case of mange. Poor guy.
