Abstract

The Gray Fox, Urocyon cinereoargenteus, is listed federally as a threatened species in Canada, but has been undergoing a range expansion, with the first New Brunswick occurrence recorded in 2007. Here we document a second recent New Brunswick occurrence (2014) and suggest that monitoring the species in the province may be warranted.
