The officer spotted a family of foxes darting through traffic in a panicked dance.
Among them, one pup struggled significantly, her hind legs failing her as she tried to navigate the road. Realizing the immediate danger to both the animals and passing motorists, the officer activated their emergency lights, creating a shield for the family of foxes.
With the help of a second responding officer, the team secured the pained pup. Rather than leaving it to chance, they escorted the young fox to the experts at Hope For Wildlife. The small survivor is on the mend, showing steady progress each day.
It’s a reminder that a little extra caution at dusk and dawn goes a long way in protecting our wildlife that we often find using the roadways too.
