One spring evening a young fox appeared in Alex’s suburban garden, apparently asking for help. Her accidental fostering of Little Fox led her to volunteer at a wildlife rescue centre in the West Country, following the fortunes of a litter of orphaned cubs as they grew to adulthood and were released back into the wild.
Orphaned Foxes gives a rare insight into one of Britain’s most secretive mammals, revealing much about our relationship with wild animals and the complexities of modern conservation. Please note that, at 56 pages, this is a short read.
Review by Mary Colwell, producer and writer, Curlew Media:
"Alex's fox tale is part of our long, complex relationship with wild animals that stretches back to earliest times. Through reference to literature and scientific work on foxes, she binds a story of fox rehab with wider issues. This is a fine little book, I learned a lot and I like Alex’s gentle style of writing. Like a good meal it is filling but not too weighty. It is full of information delivered in a friendly and easy to read way – and her love of foxes is genuine and inspiring. A good book to read in your favourite chair in the garden."
