Folf

A folf, also known as a pholph,[1] is a fictional anthropomorphic hybrid species, made up of a cross between a fox and a wolf. In real life, this type of crossbreeding is not biologically possible, as wolves and foxes are a different species, with different numbers of chromosomes.

A folf can show the physical characteristics of both mentioned species, depending on which side is more dominant.

Alternate terms[edit]

Less-frequently used names for this type of hybrid include the portmanteau terms wolx, wox, wolfox, and fwox. In current social furry fandom, "pholph" commonly refers to furry fan Ryan Dewalt's own fursona, Tet Solfire.
