1. fennec (Vulpes zerda) [19th c.]
   • 1982, Filip Jánský, Pevnost v poušti, Praha: Mladá fronta, page 97:

     Poblíž se kašlavě ozval probouzející se fenek, vychytralá lištička, a zase bylo ticho a klid, až náhle za vrstevnicí se začal pomalu vynořovat malý zástup jezdců na velbloudech.

     Coughing sounds of a waking fennec, cunnig little fox, were heard nearby, and then there was quiet and peace again, until suddenly a small swarm of riders on camels started slowly appearing from behind the horizon.
