Orphaned fox cub abandoned on roadside with ‘help me’ note
The cub is under the care of staff at an RSPCA wildlife centre.
A fox cub is now in a “safe place” after being abandoned at the side of a road with a “heartbreaking” note written on a Greggs paper bag.
The cub – which is now being cared for at an RSPCA wildlife centre – was found in a carrier box on Langley Moor, Co Durham, on May 24, with a note which read: “My mam died – help me.”
“It is very sad that he isn’t growing up in the wild with his mum but we are so grateful to all the members of the public for contacting us about him and taking the time to rescue and save his life.
“It’s a lovely reminder that there’s so many wildlife friends out there.”
If there are no signs of any parents after 24 hours, they should visit the RSPCA website for advice on next steps.
