Fox cub rescued from a living room

Foxes seem to need rescuing from some very strange places and one day, Simon got a late-night call to a young fox that had wandered into a families living room.
It had chosen to lie low under the sofa, and was proving difficult to catch. Foxes stress easily and Simon had to make the rescue as gentle as possible to avoid it destroying the room!
Once safely contained, it was just a short trip back out to the garden where the young fox was free once again.
In Simon's words - "That's what we call a rescue-release!"

I couldn't help but laugh when the fox jumped back into the cage and Simon said "No, that's not your house"

[@nadiasartscrafts4528]

Я laughed too, Simon is so nice and funny

[@Milesco]

@@nadiasartscrafts4528 : I love Simon's sense of humor -- like when he told the homeowners that the fox was tired so why not let it spend the night!

[@cwoodswdcchannel8297]

Fox: nah I'll become a domesticated fox

[@swatichauhan7912]

I had my squirrel baby go in to the wild too but my baby also hopped back to his basket home ... And climbed up on me so I stayed with him their let him play around and and then let him climb the tree and off he went ...

[@laurlicia]

Me too!

[@yendak]

The end made me laugh. "No, I want to stay in this nice cozy box!"

[@endersdragon34]

More like, "I see how these humans treat doggies, I want to be a pet!" LOL

[@bradensweat1541]

+Bryan G hahahahaha

[@laughingachilles]

My cat was similar when I took her to the vet. She hates going in the box, it's a real challenge to get her in and lock it all up, she then cries all the way there. We got her to the vet and after a quick exam the vet decided the cat needed to stay in for some tests. Our cat then decided to get into the box of her own accord, no doubt thinking she was going home. I almost thought she was going to close the front and lock it herself. I couldn't stop laughing.

[@jacquireddy]

so sad and I love animals so sorry to say

[@zoeclarke5765]

Laughing Achilles bless

[@RobertStoll]

"NOO NOT TEH CAGE!" "NOO NOT OUTSIDE TEH CAGE!"

[@allysong5600]

Yea

[@remruna3538]

Simon: "You can't go in there, you don't fit" Fox: "Watch me, old man"

[@lazydog5922]

[@Charliehawkscreech]

"Fox looks outside the box" "*Oh hell naw, aint no way in hell im going back out there*" "Climbs back in"

[@cassidyvinson675]

There is no air conditioning! (thats what this fox said)

[@lilly2432]

I love the way you talk to animals like they're children. So cute!!

[@grytlappar]

And there's so much love for the animals in his voice.

[@thomasbonse]

When you're calm, an animal will be calm (or at least calmer). And by speaking, it's easier for an animal to recognize that calmness. That doesn't mean they won't be scared, especially a wild animal, but it can still help to de-escalate the encounter.

[@urbanimage]

I'm puzzled as why people are nervous or frighten by foxes. You really don't have to observe them for very long to see that they are fairly timid and harmless unless you were to do something stupid.

[@urbanimage]

Depends a lot on how you deal / approach the fox. If you don't know what your doing or lack confidence / experience then it would be better to keep your distance. Foxes are not dangerous in my experience - have a look at my channel for some of the fox videos. There have been two instances of rabies in the UK in the last 100 years so the chances are pretty small of getting that from a fox.

[@13Xerro]

You won't get rabies in the UK, there hasn't been a reported case since the early 1900's. But yeah they'll certain bite and claw the hell out of anyone who backs them into a corner.

[@urbanimage]

As would a fair few domestic cats.

[@louloulapetiterenarde8573]

+urbanimage Foxes are amazing animals . There is a fox family who lives in my back garden . The male comes to my patio doors to ask for food . I give him chicken , turkey , dog food , etc . He is lovely !! He takes the food back to the vixen and the pups . He is very tame and sweet . I love him so much !! ❤️❤️🐺🐺

Hats off to Simon for his empathy and patience in dealing with the various animals. 3 cheers.

[@mariamassey5468]

[@cloudyellie]

[@jeganr9797]

Pawsome Dragons htfjfhggggggggg

[@chrismcintosh798]

I'm love 🦊😍 🤟 it

[@WolfenShinigami]

Hehehe, i love how he wanted to claim the cage as his home.

[@swingardium706]

Has a mother who can provide all 3. Will not die.

[@swingardium706]

If the rescuer guy thought he was in any distress he would have brought it back to the clinic, I'm guessing the fox came in because it was curious and had probably spent a lot of time panicking when it couldn't get out, making it tired and hence the slow movements

[@wikikopec3940]

all these animals should have freedom like we do and you give all these animals their freedom

[@clemouzchon2690]

this man is so sweet with the animals I'm so admirative 😍👌

[@wildlifeaid]

Thank you very much :)

[@nandinikalani7678]

I really do love foxes, they are very perky and have such adorable ears!

[@sophierobinson2738]

I can tell Simon wants to use stronger words! Bravo.

[@strawsonian]

He's a lovely fox. Hope he's okay.

[@Robby334]

This Gentleman is the best.............. well done

[@KyriaNunNuit]

Some people can be so silly! I can't imagine being scared of a baby fox. They're adorable! ♥️♥️

[@439bananas]

They also bite and can carry mange.

[@andreapaul9832]

Thank you so much for helping that beautiful little fox. Its such a shame that people are scared of these clever little creatures when infact we encroach onto their land taking their homes and petrify them😢 Keep up the amazing work, your awesome 😊....

[@junebug6601]

Your so kind and gentle with the animal's. 😿👍

[@DanielRenardAnimation]

You guys are great. Well done. respect! Des

[@wildlifeaid]

Thanks a lot!

[@TheFurriestOne]

Ha! What a silly young critter! Good job saving the cub and the living room Simon!

[@Felatelist]

It's just a wild animal with the bright TV light suddenly shining on him while he was merely trying to get some peace and quiet. Must have been some claw marks on the drapes. Not a cut and dried animal rescue at all.

[@DucatiQueen]

What a handsome Fox 👍🏼

[@juliedorey6153]

That was adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kidsreactamsed7310]

Wow! You really know how to take care foxes 👍🏼😀😎👼🏼

[@xsilentkidx619]

What a nice man

[@kikloool3996]

EPIC FOX

[@Felatelist]

Wouldn't it be hilarious if the owner opened the door to find the whole room in shambles after the fox gave Simon a hard time trying to capture it?

[@alicjak700]

Seems like the fox decided to be a domesticated one xD

[@jennifermaher6146]

That fox is the CUTEST!

[@albertkazemian603]

[@kathyy6429]

you are a good helper for animals I like that box was adorable anti xprize to your Channel

[@businessbrokermatt]

I love the fox rescue videos. You should do more of them.

[@wildlifeaid]

We do upload almost every fox we go out to rescue! Many more are brought in to us directly :) (Oh, and more foxes on the way.. :) )

[@nikkibullock4006]

+Wildlife Aid how many foxes do handle every day?

[@wildlifeaid]

It can be quite sporadic. We have days with no foxes, and days where we'll get 4+ admitted. We currently have at least 20 still here!

[@nikkibullock4006]

+Wildlife Aid I admire you for the rescues you've done you guys are the best

[@wildlifeaid]

Thank you for the kind words :)

[@wikikopec3940]

you are great

[@wildlifeaid]

Thank you!

[@shania2458]

Sooooo. Cute

[@carinasellers9458]

He's so sweet dealing with the animals. He's not harsh with them at all which is great! 🤗

[@Felatelist]

Just saying that when the camera is recording, people tend to be on their best behavior. Other folks might have been less persuasive.

[@jacklyntree7752]

He's soo cute 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@davidmiranda4307]

thak you for save fox

[@hagalathekido]

i like how it crawls back into the box

[@aliciagriffin5054]

I just want to say that I love u r work and that my dog Alfie had to be put to sleep on the 1.07.16 because he couldn't breathe properly his Lungs were filled with water but when I watch your videos it cheers me up because u save wildlife like my dog

[@BrownEyedHighGirL]

In such ugly times as the one we're all living now, subtlety, sweetness and kindness are enormously appreciated. Thank you.

[@Karoshiix]

The fox is so cute!!!

[@teeth_eater]

I love foxs

[@lizztrap]

So so cute

[@agentfungus9742]

I'm surprised it didn't "poo" all over the room. That was cute the way it went back into the carrier.

[@wildlifeaid]

That was the reason we didn't use gloves. If we had done that there would have been much more of a mess!

[@komahinacanon526]

so cute baby foxy 💓💕

[@littlemrpinkness295]

Oh I wish they could understand he is there to help them not harm.

[@letolethe5878]

I would not like them in a box. I would not like them with a fox. I would not like green eggs and ham. I would not like them, Sam-I-Am! Actually I would love Simon Cowell everywhere. So gentle and patient.

[@ioanamacor8945]

omg...tge fox was so cute! i hope that he is ok!

[@darkenwarrior]

it's so strange when animals fight to not get in the box, but when you let them out, they want to stay in.

[@lass-inangeles7564]

Yay!! You got Boxy Foxy!! What a sweetie! Thank you dear Simon!!!

[@noctdevilc7208]

Awwwww

[@kridix7257]

That's Why I Love Foxes There Soooo Cute

[@louloulapetiterenarde8573]

Why was the woman scared ? Foxes aren't aggressive, the little guy was just scared. I hand feed a dog fox who lives in my back garden ( the vixen is scared to come near me though ), they are amazing animals !!!! Well done once again Simon !!!! We love you !!!! :)

[@TheWoollyFrog]

A dog fox?

[@louloulapetiterenarde8573]

+WillieLongEel A male fox is also called a dog, a female fox is called a vixen ❤️🐺

[@wildlifeaid]

Sadly the media hasn't been very kind to foxes, and many people see them as things they are not :( Thank you very much for your kind words :)

[@louloulapetiterenarde8573]

+Satanface Hyena the only species I'm scared of is the human lol ❤️🐺🐷🐱🐭🐹🐰🐸🐵🐮

[@TheWoollyFrog]

Loulou La Petite Renarde But 'dog' fox sounds derogatory towards foxes. Since they are wild animals.

[@mickeymouse-qm4cy]

Clever fox

[@moskimoski3887]

It's so nice how your handling it

[@007NowOnline]

Great video. Glad the fox was ok. :)

[@wildlifeaid]

Thanks very much :)

[@lancesartain6885]

WOW if I had a fox in my house I would go crazy!

[@pepper419]

That little buggar really wanted a new home, yours or theirs, it didn't matter.

[@hawkesbayparanormalinvesti3261]

well done

[@chadnorris8257]

It's warm and soft in the house. The poor baby's just trying to get adopted.

[@itsnielramcabiso7205]

[@breadandcircus1]

So cute fox ! :)

[@TheJECNova]

Apparently, someone found Human home a nice cozy and temporary respite. Was funny seeing the youngster scramble back in the carrier. "I'm not going and you can't make me!"

[@439bananas]

It wanted to go back to the rescue centre for a good nosh up and cozy night.

[@whynormal1988]

the fox was so cute!

[@stephyboo3205]

That little one was just too cute bless it😍😂
