RSPCA called to save a stuffed fox

And other stories from the stranger side of life

Fox

The RSPCA was called by a resident in Exeter who was worried about a fox they’d spotted hiding under a bush. The caller said it had not moved for several days. However, there was a good reason for its immobility. The RSPCA officer said: “As soon as I arrived I realised that this wasn’t a live fox – but a dead fox who’d been stuffed by a taxidermist.”
