Fennec is the name of the build of the Mozilla Firefox web browser for smaller non-PC devices, mobile phone devices and PDAs.

While Fennec is based on Firefox, the user interface is completely redesigned and introduces a number of new paradigms. It uses touchscreen interaction methods (or the cursor keys, for non-touchscreen handsets) in place of dragging actions with a mouse. Some of the add-ons and plug-ins available for Mozilla Firefox are available for Fennec.
