A Patchway fox had quite the shock after it got trapped in a football net at a local school. An RSPCA animal rescue officer was called to Stoke Lodge Primary School after the young fox was found tangled in the netting.
The adorable creature needed to be carefully cut from the football net before being taken to a local vet for check-ups. The charity says incidents involving fox cubs entangled in netting are on the rise, sometimes with fatal consequences.
Rescue officer Alison Sparkes attended the school to free the stricken cub. The RSPCA wants to share the image of the poor fox to raise awareness of the dangers these incidents pose to wildlife.
