Red Fox Cubs

We had a photo day at the British Wildlife Centre on Friday and were able to go into some of the enclosures including the foxes. Here are some shots of one of the cubs - cute lillte things

Re: Red Fox Cubs

Hi Demicav

They really were a pleasure to watch up close without the restriction of wire etc. To encourage them to come close for the photographers, the keeper was feeding them chicks and they would take them , dig a little hole and bury them for later - so the enclosure was full of little holes so you had to be careful of tripping

Re: Red Fox Cubs

thanks Ellen and Deer Boy. It is certainly a good place to visit even on an ordinary public day
