  • A creature of the night, he is active at night and sleeps during the day.
  • At dawn, he is searching for a peaceful place, under a tree, to fall asleep.

Once stuck or damaged by a fall, it will sometimes whine and rush around until it falls onto objects. Despite its reaction to falling, a Arctic fox is not injured, which is undoubtedly why it is among the rarest.
