The piercing black eyes and snow-white coat of the Arctic Fox are fine examples of nature's beauty. But for this species of fox, it's a temporary look that is best viewed during the coldest time of year. 
 
"Right now he's displaying his full winter coat" Steven Burns told Newsline 9. Burns is zookeeper at Wildwood Park and Zoo, 1800 South Central Avenue, Marshfield. His duties include caring for Blizzard, an Arctic Fox brought to the zoo in 2012, and Shadow, a Gray Fox who shares the habitat.
