How this list was compiled: Our own pixel pictures, drawn square by square for this site on 12 by 12 and 24 by 24 grids in October 2026. Nothing is traced, scanned or copied from clip art, no picture shows a brand or a logo, and none shows a character from a film, show, book or game. The facts about the red fox, the Arctic fox, fox tails and young foxes were checked against Wikipedia in October 2026 (text under CC BY-SA 4.0, read for the facts and not copied); the other descriptions say only what each drawing shows. The color and square counts were counted from the finished grids. Licence: own work
