Fennec adds a new, unique mob to the game called the Fennec Fox.
The Fennec Fox is easily threatened, and when it is, it digs a Fennec Burrow specifically ONLY into red sand. It gets threatened by Fast Moving Players, Hostile Mobs, and Thunderstorms.
You can lure a Fennec Fox out of it's burrow using live Rabbits or by holding Raw/Cooked Rabbit.
You can tame it using Rabbit and when you sleep next to your new companion, it will give you "Foxes Grace", a new mob effect that allows you to fall +8 blocks higher with no fall damage for half of the daytime. It also allows you to burn for a shorter time and gives you higher luck while looting structures or fishing.
Fennec Foxes DO NOT SPAWN NATURALLY. You will find one by sleeping in a bed in the Badlands and one has a chance to appear when daytime arrives.
