The ancestral Arctic fox Vulpes qiuzhudingi is an extinct species of fox found in the Himalayas.[2] It was primarily carnivorous.[3] The fossils, dating from between 5.08 and 3.60 million years ago, were found in the Zanda Basin and Kunlun Mountains of Tibet.[4] 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 originally from the Tibetan Plateau.[5]
