A few weeks ago, we shared the story of this Cape Fox (Vulpes chama). She was illegally kept in a domestic environment with dogs and was subsequently bitten. Having been moved into an outside enclosure, introduced to natural food items and having recovered completely from the dog bite, her next step is freedom to live out her life in the wild, where she should have been all along.

She was unfortunately bitten by one of the dogs, and was taken to Fourways Vet Hospital where she was stabilised and subsequently transferred to us. She had made a complete recovery and is now well on her way to being released.
