About a year ago I saw a black fox and posted about it on here. Saturday, he reappeared and this time he gave me a very good look. He appears to be a melanistic red fox.
Has anyone else ever seen one?
How rare is this?

Saw one in area 30 on Campbell few years back. Too far to try for it though. It was awesome. I would have had it mounted for sure.
