I doubt that they are ticks.  More likely Sarcoptes.    If on a human the condition would be called Scabies......and it's highly transmissible, so I hope you took a bath and washed your clothes after skinning it. 🙂

 I don't think it would be "a beautiful Red Fox" if it had mange.

Eye of the beholder maybe?   😂.

Not at all, canine Sarcoptes victims become hairless/partially hairless  and they stink terribly. I don't know anyone who could stand to skin one.  Ivermectin is the cure though if you start treatment soon enough. It's also the prevention.

You mean like this coyote in my yard?

Pretty? I have actually seen worse.  I guess you could smell it?
