Alien of the Day: A martian fox critter! Its large ears can detect sound in the thin atmosphere, while its ears and tail both help keep it warm during the Martian nights, with thin legs adapted to the low gravity. From the Picture Atlas of our Universe; a favourite book of mine as a kid.

I also loved this book as a kid and instantly recognized the painting! I'm so happy to see so many others in the comments with this story 🥲
