N, 5 mi. W San Angelo (31º31.3′N, 100º31.3′W), 4 (ASNHC). Urocyon cinereoargenteus scottii Mearns 1891 Common Gray Fox In Tom Green County, this species is more common than Vulpes vulpes (Boyd et al. 1997). A female was collected from near Bald Eagle Creek on 15 December 2000. A male road-killed gray fox was salvaged on FM 2288 near WMA 9. A skull was salvaged from another roadkill on Arden Road near Red Arroyo Park adjacent to SASP on 12 October 2001. One individual was sighted on 15 March 2000 emerging from a den in Turkey Creek. Trailmaster photographs of gray fox were taken from WMA 10 in winter, spring, and fall of 2005. Boyd et al. (1997) reported that gray fox were abundant at the MIR Center, which borders SASP to the north. Specimens examined (3).– 1 mi. S, 3½ mi. W San Angelo (31º26.9′N, 100º30.2′W), 1 (ASNHC 12862); 3 mi.
