That's the very rare blind cave fox. Nearly extinct because they're so easy to catch.

Now, honestly, that's a 'full mask' the wife would approve of... She's weirded out by the complete heads...with eyes....looking at her ....

"This Sporran Bag Made of 100% Chrome Leather"

. Perfect accessory for a bagpipe, though

I wonder what it would say?

The 84th Royal Highland Emigrants wore full face sporrans made of Raccoon, so its quasi traditional

I look at the fur and I see coyote. I've not tanned a grey fox from the northern states captured during the winter (which would have a similar plush pelt). I expect the "face" is not attached because the nape and scalp of a coyote would be correct dimensions of this sporran's flap.

I concede that I have only dressed two grey foxes and one red during my life. But I have seen a lot of coyote pelts.

Yep looks to me like the head/face is just a piece of fur cut to that shape.

They thought they could get away with that? At the very least they could have stuck a couple fake eyes on it.
