Vulpes qiuzhudingi is an extinct species of fox that lived during the Neogene period in the Himalayas.[2] It was primarily carnivorous.[3] The fossils, dating from the Pliocene epoch between 5.08 and 3.60 million years ago, were discovered in the Zanda Basin and Kunlun Mountains of Tibet.[4][5] It was named after Qiu Zhuding, a paleontologist from the Chinese Academy of Sciences.[3] The species is believed to be the ancestor of Vulpes lagopus, the modern Arctic fox, which would support the "Out of Tibet" theory: namely, that a number of current Arctic species trace their ancestry to species that originally inhabited the Tibetan Plateau.[6]
