A rarely-seen domesticated 'silver fox' has been captured by experts after it was spotted roaming the streets of South Wales. The animal was floating around the area of Barry on April 8, 2023.
Black Foxes UK responded to reports of the animal roaming the town, with the RSPCA previously urging caution over the creature. The animal welfare charity condemned the keeping of wild animals as pets. They were 'unsuccessful' in several attempts to capture the rare breed due to being limited it its capacity, according to Wales Online.
The Black Foxes group contacted the local authority's animal warden service and the Shua Trust Home and Sanctuary, as hardy volunteers managed to capture the fox on Monday, April 24. It had been roaming the streets of Barry for over two weeks.
