National Fox Welfare Society’s Activities
In three Four months of 2008
National Fox Welfare Society’s Activities
January -
To give an indication of the National Fox Welfare Society's commitment to foxes, below is a brief rundown of activities for the period January 2008 to May 31 st 2008
Mange Treatment: The Society sends out treatment, free of charge, to householders
willing to feed foxes that are suffering from the terrible condition, Sarcoptic Mange.
Foxes that, untreated, would die a long lingering death. This treatment went out
to help cure a staggering 1616 foxes in the five month period. Because this treatment
is sent out free of charge, NFWS incurs the cost; in just 5 months we spent roughly
£8,080 on these treatments alone! We sent a further 152 treatments out in thefive
months, at a total of £655.00 worth, for foxes suffering from other ailments and
conditions.
If the above wasn't proof enough of our commitment, in addition NFWS volunteers rescued a further 131 foxes that were seriously ill or injured. Furthermore, to catch still mobile foxes with life threatening conditions, the Society set 109 cage traps. We have also had 131 orphaned fox cubs.
Adding all the above together we arrive at an overall total of 2142 foxes directly
helped by NFWS in just 5 months of the year 2008. This is an amazing total of 14
foxes a day, every day of 2008!!!. 
Of course, this doesn't take into account the
number of foxes we have saved from contracting Sarcoptic Mange by treating their
family members. Although this figure is hard to quantify, we believe it could run
into hundreds in this year alone.
What makes the above figures even more remarkable is that we endeavour to get a rescuer out to a critically injured fox within an hour, thus ensuring that a needy fox is given the urgent attention that it deserves. By supporting the National Fox Welfare Society, you will help us to ensure a sick fox is treated, an injured fox rescued, an orphaned fox cub successfully rehabilitated back into the wild, Also, that our reputation as ·The Fox·s First Emergency Service' is maintained.
