Fish-Fox

The Fish-Fox is a silly creature from Lumberjack Folklore. It has the “scientific name” Piscivulpus coertduboisia. They can be commanded like dogs. They dive into the water and make sounds like an angleworm. They then return to the shore, causing the fish to follow it back onto land, leaving themselves completely vulnerable to anyone to kill.
