Trapped fox needs rescuing from garden tangle!

We deal with a lot of animals trapped in netting here at Wildlife Aid, but washing line proved to be a little more of a challenge!
Simon was quickly on scene after reports that this male fox had managed to get his leg caught in the wire, but the tough braided core proved to be quite a tricky thing to deal with...
Luckily, we carry enough equipment to always come up with a way, but we have now added specialist cutters to our kit just in case!

I love foxes. I have local foxes, they have been raised in the area, and so were their parents. I feed them several times per week.

This dude used to have his own doco show on UK TV that I watched over 20 years ago… Calls in the middle of a winter night, below zero conditions, to rescue any living being… this dude is a true hero… he’ll go through hell for any animal…

It takes some time for them to realize they get help, get comfortable with the handling, but then they slow down. Ounce saw 4 men wrestling with a deer being on the wrong side of the high way fence. I hope it ended well some way or the other.

Lawrie's ever the photographer lol, scruffing a fox but also holding onto a go pro at the right angle and being willing to be used as a balance for the grasper pole too 😂 So glad this little guy was still feisty/bitey and could be released right away. Sure got himself into a tangle.

You just don't see much good in our world anymore. This rescue of the fox was wonderful. I have four rescue cats and 2 more coming. One was a kitten that i heard meowing non stop in the middle of the road in front of my home. I meowed and it came running up my drive, onto the porch and into the house. She is the most loving of them all. They live indoors with me. They have climbing towers, pet beds, toys and get the best all natural foods. Two of them sleep at the end of my bed. At 68 now, they are my family.

You two are AWESOME! I have so much respect for you all and your experience in handling the beautiful fox🦊. I had three babies playing close to my yard while my neighbor and I were talking. I had my hoe, because I was doing some weeding in my flower garden at the edge of my driveway. Where there are babies the mother can't be far. So after watching them play for a while we decided to leave just in case the mother show up. I had the feeling that she was watching all along. 🦊🦊🦊🌟
