The Three Legged Gray Fox Update

My wounded fox is still coming around each day to get some food.  I got a few bad photos on the 14th and one today. He ran back into the woods today because of the noisy people upstairs. I never saw him again. That pissed me off when those jerks upstairs wouldn't get away from the window. I hope the fox came back after dark. The others do but not sure about him. I worry so much about that bone protruding out of his leg and that he might get gangrene in it. But I will watch him as long as he keeps coming and if I see him slowing down I will tell the Rehabbers. But I don't really think they want to be bothered. I just have that feeling. Hopefully I'm wrong.

  2. He got shot in that leg and it shattered the whole lower part. The paw was there at first but he chewed it off two days later. Now I wish he would chew off those protruding bones so he can heal the right way and not get infected. He is a very handsome guy. And since I watched him grow up it makes me very sad. Thanks Deena.
