Cute fox cub entangled in tree roots

When Simon was called out to rescue a fox cub caught in some tree roots, he expected an easy rescue-release. But that was not the case...
With his foot bent in a tree root, this silly fox cub got himself into a mess that could cost him his chance to grow up with his family. After bringing him back to the hospital, they found out that his leg had a “greenstick” fracture, which is a simple undisplaced and still aligned fracture. The vet had to decide if he was going back to his mum or staying at the hospital to recover. Watch the video to see if he got back home or not!

That was our fox. We've just watched the video for the first time and the girls were really excited. We've not seen the fox again, but one of the neighbours has reported it with its family. Keep up the good work!!! Thanks for all your help!!!!

[@wildlifeaid]

Nav Gillon That is great news! Thank you very much for your help in saving that cub's life! Have a look at the iDot (I do one thing) Facebook page (facebook.com/pages/iDot/1520911948156379?ref=hl), to see a video of Simon and the girls!

[@millomweb]

When you have dangerous trees, is it likely to come back ;)

[@KTPurdy]

Glad to read a follow-up

[@kattishh]

Oh these fox cubs, always getting themselves in trouble!

[@lilabarrows6107]

She (vet) has the most lovely voice. I would listen to meditations and stories of she made them. ☺️

[@LorawTimotei2]

i love the fox's expression the entire video is "fed up" still it's so cute though

[@Plasmatreck]

Foxes are so damn cute. And not only the Cubs :3 I love them

[@MrTerrorsaur]

1:03 Fox's like: "I'm so grounded..."

[@Gedagnors]

This is absolutley amasing! Thank you for what you do! Recently I saved a bird (swift), by just delivering him to the bird doctor, who will let him go after he will recover. The most terrifying moment was to take him to the doctor on the taxi and for long 60 minutes I was checking if he is still alive. There was a small fracture in his wing, a lot of parasites hiding in his feathers, but generaly he was ok.

[@wildlifeaid]

Ged Agnors Well done!

[@TheFurriestOne]

That first step out was great! "Freedo- Ack! Paparazzi!!" *FLEE*

[@koskosneko]

Aww, he just had a little field trip and then went back home. Precious bb.

[@wildlifeaid]

Sierra Angell lol, exactly!

[@sheronanunn4011]

+Wildlife Aid does Simon write the replys on the comments because it would be great getting the replys from the man himself who rescues all the animals

[@77antzon17]

cute cub and cute spanish lady

[@elnabjelland-hughes8172]

A tear in the bone is a fracture- hairline fracture - non- displaced so he could be set free - good work Simon and crew 😊💕

[@lazerlazer]

You’re such a kind and gentle soul. I love watching your work and interaction with the animals you save. Keep up your wonderful work. Thank you.

[@LittleLulubee]

Wow, such a precious little angel!! I wish I lived in a place with fox cubs.

[@sarahsharpe7713]

Love watching your videos, you are doing amazing things :)

[@wildlifeaid]

Sarah Sharpe Thank you!

[@bangtansteddy2736]

+Wildlife Aid your doing the best things for them but I hate when you have to put them to sleep

[@wildlifeaid]

GamerChloe It breaks our hearts too... but most of the time it's the kindest thing we can do.

[@bbranett2188]

[@FrankTheGuy]

I love the music at the end😀. Thanks for the good work saving the animals in need.

[@mbhsug]

Every day I am looking forward to new videos from you. It is great so see how you help the animals. We are currently working with a copter in the meadows in Germany. There we save fawns, before the mower comes and shredder the little ones. Fawn rescue - Kitz Rettung mit Wildtieren Hilfe-mv

[@wildlifeaid]

[@wildlifeaid]

Caroline Wiggins Yes, they are both taken, sorry!

Wildlife Aid Stands to reason. Or as we say over here: あたりまえ。　Keep up the good work!

[@wildlifeaid]

[@wildlifeaid]

+Robert Johnson Thank you for your support, and welcome to the Wildlife Aid channel!!

[@christianartigas1834]

Robert Johnson I agree, I love these videos. People trying to do good for those who may even hurt them. It's very nice

[@Kitties_are_pretty]

The real fox in this video is the veterinarian.

[@geoffreyrichards6079]

I know I should feel sorry for the little kit’s injury, but I couldn’t help but chuckle a bit at 1:08 as Simon puts the petrified cub into the box like a taxidermy prop.

[@74Noose]

Friday, sun is shining and a new clip from Wildlife Aid. Perfect start of the weekend :)

[@razony]

I LOVE your videos!

[@charlesnelson7781]

Glad you rescued the wee fox,but the subtitles are terrible wrong Words and spelling mistakes, but great ending for the wee fox great job.👍

[@muralinair7093]

Super 🙏god bless you sir

[@oliveryt7168]

1:03 He's got that facial expression that says: "Just eat me already, you monsters!"

[@bobstreet7950]

God bless you all

[@andrewrusso4379]

I've seen almost every video and they are amazing

[@wildlifeaid]

+andrew russo Thanks so much for your support!

[@kimh7568]

Oh my gosh - how cute are they?!?! Haha

[@FreezyAbitKT7A]

People and their trees, don't they know animals can get hurt on natural things too.

[@sharonholdren7588]

Even I who loves to ride horses "to the hounds" am mortified at the thought of a foxhunt after seeing the harmlessness of these beautiful creatures.

[@lobomarino49]

beutiful team love it

[@cwoodswdcchannel8297]

foxes are so cute

[@ingeborg-anne]

[@wildlifeaid]

Ingeborg Anne Rakvåg Thank you for watching!

[@seriousspikesam7770]

Aww... he's very stuck, bitey and fed up but he's adorable nonetheless.

[@spartan9362]

Good man 👍🏻😍

[@sagerider2]

That looks more like, what the hell are they doing to me? Are they going to eat me? Please, don't let them eat me. LOL This is my sad face.

[@nodvick]

no disposable/degradeable brace you can put on it?

[@danilabagra9761]

Holy man

[@kitschkat8678]

2:59 is my reaction to noticing I'm being filmed, too.

[@judithoverton7341]

little "Bendy Bones "...LOL... ^_^

[@EirikBull]

+Karma! Love it. :)

[@suzannel2414]

❤

[@pabloguazzotti2260]

if I found such cutie in my garden (for which I would have to have a house and a garden first) I'd struggle not to keep his as a pet.

[@jakeofyo]

1:23. That's definitely how you use hand gestures towards your colleagues, I'm dying of laughter, xD.

[@poisonberrycupcakes]

Just looked like a peace sign to me? Is it a British thing?

[@jakeofyo]

Ambriehl Meyer Ah, it's humor that... big mouthed people would understand. It's a gesture of the C word I believe. But in working conditions, you never know what it could be.

[@poisonberrycupcakes]

Ooooh, thanks!

[@littlefox6786]

🐾

[@thedanespeaks]

FOX-TV exclusive. Cub got stuck in roots of tree. Giant frogs get him out. Happy reunion ensues. Tonight on FOX-TV!

[@morganlast5498]

It's scary to think how many animals would be dead if it wasn't for you.

[@foxandrade3222]

Save the foxes

[@Lyiad]

omg 1:00 the cub is just 100% done lol

[@Camden.M]

yay but who wants a fox in their yard just saying I would but she has kids😻

[@toopoorx9633]

Simon , do you write books ? I have a book about Simons cat and it's written by Simon cowell :)

[@Migueldientesfogonero]

Cute fox? Of course, but that nurse is cuter :)

[@MarcusScheller]

+Michal “Majk81” T. True. :)

[@sheronanunn4011]

Why post that? Nobody needs to know that you think the vet is cute

[@DodgyBadboy]

morbidly obese feminist

[@MarcusScheller]

Sherona Nunn Shut up, Meg!

[@spudhead169]

+Sherona Nunn - Why post that? Nobody needs to know that you think nobody needs to know he thinks the vet is cute. Go on a diet and get some plastic surgery ffs, then maybe you'll respect yourself,

[@RewildingFlanders]

I thought you couldn't touch wild foxes with your bare hands due to infection risk by parasites? I this assumption true?

[@wildlifeaid]

Thomace22 There is a risk of mange, but we just wash our hands after.

[@ari-sg3ip]

At 2:19 it looks like the fox is crying

[@521cjb]

Have you ever rescued a fox, then the people wanted to keep it for a pet ?

[@MochaTater]

So what about your scent on the cub? Usualy you wear gloves or rub it down with dirt to remove your scent but in this one you didnt

[@azaramoon4027]

I get upset about vetinary care for people on benefits, as my cat was bitten on the leg recently, and I could not afford the full treatment for him. Its appauling to put money before animal welfare.

[@paulasaldana7365]

la veterinaria es española?

[@guerra_dos_bichos]

cute girl with cute accent

[@terry5935]

A mi me lo parece

[@chasestevenson5396]

what you just let it go alone I know that the mother it probably there but what if she's not what if he can't find her I think you should make sure the mother is close by so he won't be all alone a fix that young wouldn't be able to survive on its own that's why I don't like it when you just let one go were you found it becouse chances are that it will get hurt just trying to get back to its family

[@wildlifeaid]

+Chase Stevenson It would have been impossible to find the mum as most foxes will stay away from any human contact. We always release just a matter of yards from where they are found. Their incredible sense of smell will guide them back to each other. Cubs like this one are used to keeping hidden and wait for their parents to come back. Even if the mum was not around at that precise moment, she would have been close by and come back to pick it up when nobody was around. Sometimes you have to trust nature!

[@chasestevenson5396]

+Wildlife Aid well that really cleared this up thank you for replying I love what you do

[@ChickpeatheTortie]

:-)

[@jydeinden]

stupid tree :D

[@shingshongshamalama]

Most wildlife we get up here is fucking pigeons.
