Foxes always seem to find themselves in the strangest situations and this handsome male was definitely no exception to that!
After getting tangled in netting in another garden, he had then managed to get stuck on a tree stump and was unable to move. Luckily, Lawrie and Abbey were soon on the way to help!
This is also a perfect example of why these sort of situations should be left to an experienced rescuer. Very tight constrictions can cause wounds that take some time to develop, and it's vital that they get the treatment they need if so!

Well done, Lawrie! You’ve turned into such a multi-faceted rescuer. Simon couldn’t have asked for anyone better to be his right hand man!
Thank you so much, I really do appreciate that! (Lawrie)
Absolutely!
@@wildlifeaid with the mounted camera gear you look like a rescuer that came from the future to help that fox 😊👍
I couldn't agree more, Wendy. Watching from the US, I couldn't imagine a better right-hand man for Simon!
Poor foxy! Thank you for giving him all the expert after care he needed, otherwise he prob'ly woulda lost that leg ❤
Thanks so much. He was definitely very lucky to get caught when he did!
Excuse my language but BLOODY NETTING AGAIN!!
Indeed... sadly we have seen a HUGE spike in netting callouts this year. I (Lawrie) have just got back from another as I type this!
I wish that everyone who has netting in their gardens would watch this video. Great rescue.🦊❤️
We would love to see that! Thanks so much :)
Thank you so much for saving helpless inocent cute fox you are very kind dil se salute👍🙏 angel🤗🙌👏🤲❣️🌹🙏🙏
THANK YOU SO MUCH. 🥰🥰🥰 Best wishes to all of you💕💕💕
Aw, the look in his eyes on the close up of him in the Kennel. He's so beautiful. I'm glad you guys and gals were able to help him, so sad about the entanglement, but in a way it's lucky he got caught so you could help get it off him and treat his injury so he can go home back to the wild! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Yes, those round eyes, full of wonder: "I bet they are taking me to the vet, jeez" 😆😆😆😆😆
Thanks so much. Hope you have a great Christmas and new year too!
I really adore the "did you know" tags that let people know exactly what they might be wondering or worrying at that moment. It's clear that years of being on the internet and reading the comments on your videos have made you keen on what people will be concerned or curious about, and you give us the answers right then and there, clear and concise! That's damn good education work, right there!
Thank you so much all of you Bless you
This is such a heart warming story because it demonstrates how brilliant you guys are for taking so much care and forward consideration. Most people would probably have just given him a once over and let him go on the spot, as he looked quite unscathed, but you went the extra mile just in case of an eventuality that actually did occur. Wildlife Aid are the best 💜
Wildlife Aid is so incredible. You guys are heroes and always my first call for the wounded animals I find. Lawrie is also becoming somewhat of a legend round here, as he seems to be the person we get coming out on rescues the most since Simon got ill. 🌷🌸 You guys are amazing
Thank you so much, that's so kind of you to say. We really appreciate the support :) Yes, Lawrie has been doing most of our 'dangerous' callouts (and all of our overnight calls) recently. Simon is still recovering but feeling much better!
@@wildlifeaid Oh I'm so glad to hear Simon is doing well!!!
Wonderful Rescue of a beautiful fox!! Well done!! ❤️😀❤️
Thanks Wildlife Aid team 👍
nicely rescued, smartly kept and happily let go --- Good Job Ladies and Gents
Blessings to you for using your gift of compassion to make the world a better place than you found it ❤
Thank you for looking after all the wildlife 🦊🦊🦝🦝🐭🐭🐰🐰🦔🦔🦢🦢🦆🦆
Despite long hours, The Fox did well. Had to get it back for his Tail to be groomed and his Constricted Leg wound to be healed and dressed. Well done. This fox will be well for the Holidays!
Thank you to all who helped this precious little soul !!! Thank God for kind compassionate people like you !!!!!
Oh my goodness!! I was so enchanted by the rescue & the honey 🍯!!! Well Done Lawrie!! Glad you took him in! ❤️💖💕
Excellent work, as always. Thank you 💚💚💚💚
Thanks everyone. It’s so nice to see them released back into their habitat. All the best from Australia 👍🇦🇺
GOD BLESS YOU ALL! CONGRATULATIONS!
❤❤❤thanks for save life
Thank you so much for saving the beautiful fox ! love you always ! xxoxoxoxooo
Oh, that poor scared foxy! Many thanks to Lawrie, Abbey, Simon and every single other person at Wildlife Aid, plus of course the residents for calling such professionals in to rescue the poor lad! I loved Lawrie at 05:28 "In fact, he's a bit angry" and immediately thought "Well, yeah, he's been staying in a 5-star resort for a couple of months, and now you're evicting him without warning! I'd be pretty grumpy about it too!" 😆
Thank you Lawry and team once again for rescuing and healing that poor foxy.
Well done!
Thank you!
Well done Lawrie 🎉
Hooray! A job well done! Thanks for all that you do!
😢😢poor baby. Bless you Lawrie, for helping him ❤❤❤❤
I had no idea that constriction injuries could take days to show up. Thank you, this video was very educational.
Love to see that the fox is healed and at home !
Well done to you all
What a great rescue, and good that he was kept long enough that the wound could be identified. What a lovely bushy tail!
Thanks so much. He was a very handsome boy!
😱 cor at first that looked really nasty, but luckily it didn't take long to get him out, it's a good job you got him seen by the vet. Long job to get him well again. Outstanding video thanks 💖😁
We were REALLY worried about a break at first. We were probably in the car in less than 5 minutes! Thanks so much for the kind support. We really appreciate it!
Any rescue video with a fox is always one I eagerly welcome. Beautiful animals with a mischievous charm and a way of getting in trouble with their sense of adventure, something like that. 🙂
many thks bonne annee 2023
Thank you! You too!
Well done on catching the wound early. Hope there are less netting injuries next year.
Thanks so much. We're keeping everything crossed!
The eyes ' wild and free' all these entanglements😣. Wildlife Aid 📯🎖️🏆🙂👍.
Such a wonderful ending. Thanks to all involved. You’re all heroes.
Poor Foxy sounds like he has had a few extra chances. Lovely to see him go free ❤️❤️ Thank you ❤❤
Definitely seems that way! Thanks so much for the support :)
Ah his little face. Foxes have a hard life surviving. Brilliant job so happy he is back free.
They certainly do poor things... Thanks so much for the support!
1) "Not Simon" is NEVER a problem 2) Give Simon my best. Cancer SUCKS. 3) Lawrie, you are wonderful and I look forward to many years of supporting WAF and seeing you and the team give comfort to and save wildlife all over the UK, and the world.
Thanks so much, we will pass that on!
Well said! ❤
Of course, we love Simon. But I'm never disappointed when Lawrie fills in. They are both incredibly kind and do an amazing job of tending to our planets inhabitants that need human intervention. Great job, Lawrie!
Well done for rescuing the fox from the netting .🦊❤
Wonderful heart warming stories.
Thank you
Thanks
Another gorgeous fox returned to his natural habitat. Well done, all. Best wishes to you all for Christmas and 2023.
Thank you very much! Best wishes from all of us here at WAF!
Your rescue videos have my personal thumbs up thanks for sharing. these foxes are beautiful.
Great work. Saved fox from slow painful death but he didn't seem particularly grateful
Thank you so much for the extra time and care you take to make sure they are alright. Thanks for all you do!
Always love the positive responses from the people who call WAF for help. You can just hear it in their voices how terrible they feel that they let that netting hang there and got a poor animal injured and in pain. Hopefully it's a warning that will spread via word of mouth with every rescue mission like this one, saving many animals from getting entangled in the future. Awesome job as usual! :)
This poor homeowner didn't have any netting in her garden! The fox was tangled elsewhere then got stuck on the stump! Thanks so much for the support :)
@@wildlifeaid That must have made it so much more shocking to see that poor animal stuck like that. At the very least the neighbours will have heard all about it, possibly even the ones who suddenly were missing a piece of netting from their garden :)
Great job!
Merry Christmas Greetings from Vienna, it's always such a delight seeing your videos! My mother had encountered a fox once in the city, which was confusing her since the area she was in was decidedly NOT suburban, but rather very much concrete and stone (but there was a small water protection area close by). It's important to live in peace with our furry and feathered neighbours, yeah.
You guys are so awesome. Really glad you kept him under observation and he could get the help he needed. :3
Thank you so much for the life of this lucky fellow, and the many other animals you have saved this year! 🤗 To all of you at Wildlife Aid, wishing you a Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year (and many more happy rescues) 🎄
Thank you so much, that's so kind of you! Best wishes and merry Christmas from all of us at WAF too!
Excellent work! God bless!
good people ..thank you
Much love and appreciation to the team.Merry Christmas 🎄
I had no idea that constriction injures can take time to show up. I learned something new today. Great video!
What a great rescue Lawrie! Poor Foxy . Love to all the team for their work . 💕
Thanks so much!
Poor Mr Fox 😣 that must have been hurting after 4 hours!! And what a job to cut him free 😨 but free he now is, always nice to see endings like this one. Thanks Lawrie, camera lady 😊 and the care given at WAF ♡♡♡
Thank you for the general effort that you did for this fox! 🤗👍
Thanks so much :)
Thanks Lauwrie, thanks team. Merry Xmas.
You're the wildlife people have wanted to save Simon.
The fantastic Mr. Fox was in excellent hands. Thank you Wildlife Aid for all that you do! Happy Holidays 🤗😃
Thanks so much. You too!
Thank you so much for doing what you do for the wildlife! Merry/Happy Christmas to all of you there, from me, in Michigan!
Thank you so much! Best wishes from all of us in the UK!
Great rescue as alway.....👍🤚
Thanks so much :)
Good Rescue 👍👍🧡🧡
What a lovely ending to this story!
Glad you liked it! Thanks a lot!
With Lawrie doing both rescues and video editing, it’s a big job getting these uploaded, and we really do appreciate it. Thankyou for everything you do and Merry Christmas from Sydney 🎄🤶🏼
Thanks so much. We really do appreciate that! Best wishes from the UK :)
So satisfying to see the care that WA gives to these magnificent wild animals, foxes get an unfair bad press from city dwellers but inadvertently we do them all the harm and they just get on with their lives. they were around long before we were in towns and cities.
Foxy Loxy said Waiting for Superman is hard work..... I knew he would come to help me 💗💗💗💗 God Bless You Lawrie and all of the rescuers 🦊🦊🦊🦊. Much love and deepest respect and admiration.
Thank you so much :)
Please... would you consider uploading twice a week again... (or - more)??? I love your video's, they're the BEST on KZhead!! Thanks for caring for this unfortunate fox! Love from the Netherlands!
Five times a week..??? ;-)
Doe jij dan ff alle editing voor ze? 🤣 en ook voor @rozemarijnOnline Overigens lekker, die rozemarijncrackers en rozemarijn is ook super lekker bij knapperig gebakken aardappeltjes. Ik wou dat ik net iets dichter bij ze woonde zodat ik mee kon helpen. Ik heb wat wildlife ervaring (en waarschijnlijk ook nog een rabiestiter die hoog genoeg is) dus ik zou wel inzetbaar zijn, overigens ook voor het schoonmaken van hokken en zo.
@@RozemarijnOnline Might become very time-consuming... But waiting a week is a very very long time! I liked it how it was, twice a week.
Thanks so much, that's really kind of you to say! We will certainly see what we can do, but video editing takes quite some time and, currently, we only have Lawrie able to edit these videos for you (and he's often out on rescues). Hopefully we can find someone else in the new year!
@@wildlifeaid Hmmm... I may be able to help a little bit with that... I only use free software (OpenShot and Audacity), though, and I use it on a Linux computer. I made my first online video course years ago, on a 24-bit computer, which was hard, so I have learned a few things along the way. Maybe I can do some early stage cutting? Ask Lawrie, perhaps? I'm in Portsmouth. I often wish I was closer to you, because then I could help with some of the rescues and with the treatments and I could also clean and what not. But in theory, I may be able to help you with some of the editing. I know that going through the videos to do the clipping takes a lot of time and can also be tedious (and I was thinking "it's also relatively risk-free because I have this hacker who interferes with just about everything that I do and that forces me to limit the risk to others) if I only took out all... could clip out all the... and then my hacker interfered and pulled down the screen, so that's a no no, I guess. (Sorry. I should have known better. He also interfered when I wanted to start working with wildlife here locally.)
Amazing work as always, well done!
Thank you so much :)
Good job saving the fox
Hoping the best for the wild
We're keeping everything crossed :)
Thank you! Merry Christmas!
What a fantastic team effort to get this beautiful boy back home 💜 A huge and heartfelt Merry Christmas to all the staff and volunteers at WAF! Here’s hoping the animals allow you time to put your feet up, binge-watch a few Christmas classics and eat WAY too much chocolate! Sending infinite love, light and (virtual) Bacardi Simon’s way 🤗 xXx
Thank you very much Emily! Happy Christmas and hope you have a good new year!
Roam free and happy little one.
We really hope so too!
You guys are amazing. Thank you for all you do.
great job!
Many thanks!
Great job! You guys are awesome.
Thank you so much!
Lawrie has so many mannerisms of Simon . Should call them Simonisms
Trained by the best.
Haha! The two have spend almost 10 years working together now!
Shhh... Lawrie is secretly Simon's love child 🤣🤣
@@wildlifeaid Long term bromance ❤ ❤
tysm
Terima kasih sudah menolong nya
Well done 👏 That was a long recovery. It was so lovely to see the fox head off home. Thank you
BRILLIANT!
Amazing work as always! Merry Christmas to all the staff and volunteers at WAF!.
감사합니다👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Kiitos!
BRA-VO!! I hated to see him struggle and be so afraid, but you really did right by this guy. Releasing him at night exactly where his scent marks surely still are (maybe even his vixen), that was perfect.
Another success story, well done everyone. No cute emote words from the fox this time?
So good to hear your voice and even see you in some videos, Simon! And wonderfull to see the others in the team. Simon, you are definitely in my thoughts!
Thank you for rescuing these animals!
Thanks so much for the support!
Great job that entanglement was serious.
He gets to stay at wildlife aid spa with food and safety.
I love that they are using manuka honey for antibiotic dressing. It's very expensive but amazing honey from Australia.
Thanks very much! It was definitely quite tight!
Wonderful rescue! I love the foxes! And you always do a fantastic job Keep in mind. The sh sh sh that we see as calming they probably hear as more of a hiss.
Real Heroes Thankyou
Thanks so much :)
