Wildlife officials in Arizona have issued a warning after an unusually aggressive fox attacked three people on a popular hiking trail within 48 hours. As local outlet TVA 4 News Tucson reports, the attacks are very unusual, and suggest that the animal is likely carrying rabies, which can be deadly without treatment if transmitted to humans.
All three incidents happened on the Hugh Norris Trail in Saguaro National Park - a challenging route that takes hikers to Wasson Peak, the highest point in the Tucson Mountains with spectacular views of the desert below.
