Black Foxes do great work trying to capture and re-home escapee pet foxes and where necessary once caught get the animal veterinarian assistance.

PLEASE if you can donate any amount to this ongoing work it helps these foxes before they are killed by cars or by snares put out for them. Please read Luna's story linked above.

THANK YOU
