Man Slowly Approached An Injured Fox And Within 20 Minutes They Were Cuddling

When most people see a fox, they only get a fleeting glance. You see the tail of the fox as it darts into the bushes. The people who saw Basil, the fox, got much more than a glimpse. They saw Basil during the day, and he was limping.

The people who found the fox contacted Dan Martin, a wildlife rescuer. He slowly approached the fox with caution..
