We URGENTLY need your help. Two nights ago a young fox cub got his head stuck in some orange plastic fencing in Heathfield. Sadly he was cut free by a member of public and ran into his den.
Rescuers spent over 9 hours waiting for him to come out. Traps were placed and one of the other cubs were caught. Sadly that night mum moved all of the cubs to a different den and we can't find them.
The orange plastic is around the cubs head or belly area. We don't have much time. The plastic will kill him. As he grows it will get tighter. If you have seen any cubs in the area, heard cubs, or even seen the cub with the plastic, call us straight away please.
The den was in the retirement home off the high street and backs on to cherwell road, firwood rise, firwood close.
Please please share this! Time is of the essence! ...
