Domesticated Silver Fox

The result of over 50 years of experiments in the Soviet Union and Russia, the breeding project was set up in 1959 by the Soviet scientist Dmitri Belyaev. It continues today at The Institute of Cytology and Genetics at Novosibirsk, under the supervision of Lyudmila Trut.
The Russian researchers have partnered with the American company SibFox to distribute these foxes as pets internationally, although at a very high price.
