Abstract
We conducted extensive surveys for the Red Fox Vulpes vulpes and Tibetan Sand Fox V. ferrilata in the Greater and Trans-Himalaya of north and north-east India between 2008 and 2013, with opportunistic camera trapping done in Kargil, Jammu & Kashmir. In this paper, we provide an update on the distribution of V. v. griffithii in the Himalaya, discuss our observations on V. v. montana , and support the claim of the occurrence of V. ferrilata in India. We also discuss the distribution overlap of V. v. montana with V. v. griffithii in the Western Himalaya; V. v. montana with V. ferrilata in the Eastern Himalaya; and V. v. montana with Indian Fox V. bengalensis in the foothills of the Himalaya.
