From the far north to the Mühlviertel highlands: six young Arctic foxes, which are actually native to the Arctic, have been living at Altenfelden Zoo for two weeks now. This makes the zoo the only place in Austria where visitors can marvel at these cute four-legged friends.

The six brothers come from Neumünster Zoo and Germany and moved into their 600 square meter natural enclosure at Altenfelden Zoo around two weeks ago. They have already settled in well and are busy exploring their surroundings.

An absolute rarity
"We are proud to be able to present these fascinating animals to our visitors. Arctic foxes are an absolute rarity in Austria and enrich our animal population immensely," says Barbara Laher, owner of Altenfelden Zoo. The zoo is currently the only one in Austria where visitors can marvel at the Arctic foxes.

Animal sponsors wanted
The four-legged friends only turn pure white from the age of two in winter. "Until then, they may also retain darker patches from their summer coat," continues Laher. Animal sponsors are currently being sought for the six brothers.
