Fox out-foxed by wheel

Foxsa9They are meant to be among the most cunning of all creatures – but a fox cub was left a bit worse for wear after being out-foxed by a car wheel.

The inquisitive creature got stuck fast when he poked his head through the discarded wheel in a back garden.


It is thought the cub – nicknamed Dunlop – may have been trapped for hours trying to extricate himself.

Fortunately, the terrified 12-week-old was spotted by homeowner Kim Strugnelll, who called in wildlife volunteers.

They later returned Dunlop to the garden, where he lives with his parents and five siblings.
