Local residents rescued them \u2013 set free from traps, rendered first aid, and then fostered them at home for over a week. All this time people tried to find a new home for foxes \u2013 a zoo or the Rehabilitation Centre, which would agree to take them. This story has already been covered by central media sources.<\/p>\n
“Rusties are only 2 months old, it’s dangerous to release them incompletely recovered in nature, but people couldn’t keep them further at home. Alas, there wasn’t any place for the foxes in Kiev zoo. Fortunately, the Kharkiv Centre for Wild, Exotic and Domestic Animals Rescue \u201cFeldman Ecopark Good Home\u201d agreed to shelter animals \u2014 the Kiev veterinarian Igor Stepchenkov accompanying fox-cubs to Kharkiv told. \u2014 We hope that Nikita and Alice (these names the cubs got from their rescuers), will feel great. According to the local specialists, there is a chance that young foxes will return to the native habitat after rehabilitation. At least, The Good Home has an experience of such work”.<\/p>\n

Foundlings were examined by the specialists of Feldman Ecopark Good Home, vaccinated and treated from parasites. The cubs have already grown up and got stronger, they look nourished, actively play. As animals are healthy and aren’t tame yet, we use special techniques helping cubs to procure nutrition independently and to avoid contact with the person. By autumn, they will be released to natural habitat.
