I WONDER - Why Do Fennec Foxes Have Big Ears?

The Fennec Fox, native to North Africa's deserts, has large ears that are half the length of its body. These ears are crucial for detecting prey underground and dissipating heat to regulate body temperature. Additionally, the fox's thick, sand-colored fur provides camouflage and protection from the sun.
