Guilla is the name for fox in Catalan. Foxes are mammals that have many things in common with orienteers. They move through fields and forests, and if necessary, they enter towns and even cities. In family groups, whenever they can, they accompany their cubs until they are skilled enough to start navigating on their own. Continuously studying the terrain and scrupulously choosing their movements, never expending a single bit of energy more than necessary. And always with their eye on their goal, which could be behind any rock, amongst bushes, next to a stream, on a cliff, or at the bottom of a valley. With extreme agility and great abilities to move through any natural environment, with very good speed and resilience capabilities that they can use as they see fit. During autumn and winter, they protect themselves with more fur (or clothing) and descend towards the warmer valleys. While in spring and summer, with the arrival of warmer weather, they climb higher and shed their coat (fewer layers of clothing). They have a reputation for being cunning and are truly animals with a lot of curiosity and intelligence, they don’t miss a trick. Foxes are also known for their wary and shy nature. They avoid getting close to other animals while moving through the forest and try to go unnoticed. Always avoiding all dangers, she tries to be the one dangerous to the rest. If we had to choose an animal to be the mascot of the Catalan orienteerers, it couldn’t be another.
