Three
tiny orphaned fox cubs helped by Burnham-On-Sea wildlife carers
Burnham-On-Sea
wildlife carers are looking after these three cute fox cubs which
have arrived at Secret World Wildlife Rescue this week.
Two
of the cubs are twins and were brought into Secret World's centre
in East Huntspill after losing their mother who is believed to have
died.
The
two, named Dillan and Dougal by staff at the centre, have been joined
by Tobermory, a fox cub found in Bridgwater who unfortunately had
also lost contact with his mother.
All
three orphan cubs are being reared by animal carer Dan Bryant at
the charitys centre.
Dan
told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "We are very cautious when orphans
come in. If we can get them back with their mother, they stand a
much higher chance of surviving with a matriarch to teach them how
to hunt and hide within their own social group."
"Fox
cubs also tame very easily and need to be reared correctly to revert
to their wild behaviours."
