I Ate the Mythology ... & Dreamt

Here, a simple kennel-like run. Fencing reinforces the boundaries, though there are no signs of life within. Not for the moment at least. Regardless, the gate lay open, welcoming any visitors whom might desire to look about.

At the entrance to the fences habitat is somewhat predictably a sign, one that serves as information display to any visitors. Engraved upon it is this;

General
Valpines are fox-like creatures with long legs and wings. They are at home both on the ground and in the air, but are most commonly found in forests. They feed on small mammals, fish, and berries, but are equally happy to snack on human munchies.
Stages of Growth
-Stage One: Token-
Because valpines are born in litters rather than hatch from eggs, these tokens are used to represent the first stage. Every litter has at least four pups, and some can have up to eight. This stage lasts for two weeks.
-Stage Two: Pup-
The pup is born, full of curiosity. Valpines at this age can be very troublesome, and they will get into absolutely everything they can. They will be very playful, and will enjoy having a lot of toys around. The pup has two buds on its back, which will eventually grow into beautiful wings. This stage lasts two weeks.
-Stage Three: Young Adult-
As a young adult, the valpine has mastered the art of begging - for treats, that is. It may begin to rebel against its childhood toys and habits, and want new and more exciting things to hold its interest. At this age, the wings are almost fully developed, though the valpine is not yet capable of flying. This stage lasts two weeks.
-Stage Four: Adult-
The valpine has reached maturity and the ability to breed. Adult valpines are very friendly, and make excellent companions for other pets. They are now able to fly, and take great pleasure in doing so often.
