The Fox knew the kind human was saving his life. Thus his patience. He didn’t even bolt or run when released. 🦊
Patience = snared in a net and unable to move and exhausted from hours struggling trying to get out?
@@heffo67 no his reaction was not like that he was peacefull
@@socal0buck Well what he said was the reality of it! Jeez.
@@socal0buck any wild animal near exhaustion & facing death will be very docile even around humans. That my friend is a fact of the wild.
True! 😸
The only upsetting thing about this is that over 800 people have given it a thumbs down. Thank you so much for helping this beautiful animal.
0,4% :)
maybe the thumbs down are for having the poor fox trapped in first place
by rubbish lying around...
@Tim - Vorrei avere dei poteri sovrannaturali per poter infliggere a chi votò pollice verso di "godersi" una DIARREA, ma eterna.-
@@estherbaettig its in a garden i suppose the net behind the goal is to stop the ball going into deep overgrowth.
May be it's because he is talking without a comma.
I'm glad you guys were able to save the fox! 😊
Poor foxy! I’m glad he’s okay now
I love how the fox looked surprised that Simon was letting him go free. Perfect.
Hopefully he feels a little better now! :D
Will that little sniff of the restraint at the end of being let free be remembered fondly by the fox? We may never know.
He seemed so confused at the end haha "Wait wait wait, so I'm not trapped anymore AND you just let me go?? What's the catch here?"
@@ericeide6230 Love it. You put it much better than I did.
Very good, free Fox.
The amazing thing is that he seemed to know you were helping him. He did not struggle and hamper your work, stayed quiet and waited patiently...yes, of course he was being held but there were no attempts to save himself and run, he did not try to bite or twist his body in any way. It was amazing to see that he trusted you.
He was very helpful! It definitely makes a change!
Animals seem to know instinctively when they are being helped. I just adore the “voices” our beloved Simon gives them ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Foxes, some of them are very smart, indeed. This one knew what was good for him.
We have foxes in our area and they are super friendly. Last year one of them sat with us while we put up our Christmas decorations.
Thank you for rescuing that beautiful fox. It was as if he knew your purpose for being there.
The little foxy knew he was being rescued. He stayed calm throughout the whole process. Well done, Wildlife Aid!
It certainly seemed like he knew! Thank you for your support :)
It was simply exhausted. No reaction at all.
Not gonna lie i'm pretty sure he just went into shock. But the rescue is still very much appreciated :)
The fox had a loop tightly around his neck holding him from doing anything and restricting his movement to only a few inches. Without that, he'd have been snapping at the man the whole time like a dragon.
@@deloachapproach4273 I think you are correct. He never displayed any aggressive behavior like growling or opening his mouth. Thankfully he was saved.
I can tell by the tone of your voice that you can be trusted. The fox was feeling that I'm sure. I so love to see animals freed! Thank you!
Thanks Thomas! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
I subscribed!
Fantastic video it was great to see the fox realizing it was being helped and its reaction at the end was priceless.
Thank you :)
Great rescue Simon! ❤
Thanks so much :)
It's just terrible how the poor fox got tangled up in the net like that, wonderful to see her released unharmed, thank you so much Simon!!!!!
Thank you for your support! We're all so glad he was ok - these scenarios don't always have such a happy ending, sadly!
@Wayne Flanigan i think he had a good look at the fox to tell if its male or female as he cutted it free

He seemed to be thoughtful more than anything else -- as if he were observing you and thinking about what you were doing. He looked at you at the end, as if considering you, before he left. It was sweet.
Hopefully he feels a little better (if slightly embarrassed) now!
Foxes can be strangely very curious animals. When I used to work in security, it wasn't unusual to have one follow me around on a patrol. Sometimes they'd get so close, they were practically walking to heel - but they'd never let you touch them! They often hung out around the gatehouse too, waiting/hoping to get some free food. I reckon they have humans sussed out. :-D
In June while camping i saved a Swan on the Murray river had a 6in Cod lure hooked under its chin and another two barbs in its neck poor thing couldnt even stretch its neck out , grabbed the pliers
it took me around 25 minutes it was scared but wild animals seem to know your trying to help rather than hurt ! watch my edited down video and how the swan comes back 20 minutes later to show its appreciation an experience ill never forget !
@@sheepsfoot2 Thank you so much for telling that story. It's unforgettable and it'll lift you up at different times for the rest of your life. Thank you.
I do agree...the fox was trying to say " thank you " . He knew exactly what trouble he was in and the rescue process provided...
Just like a duck on water, very calm on the outside but must have been scared out of his mind inside.
Great job to both of you
Fifteen years on and still watching Simon's rescues! Thank you so much for all you guys do. Such a positive and love filled channel. Enjoy
Thank you so much! :)
2:39 "get it OFF me"
2:46 "what do we do now?"
3:01 "Thanks"
3:12 "Bye for now"
Great spot! You got them all! :)
Thank you.
And as always, many, many thanks to Simon, Lawrie and the rest of the team for all the amazing work they do.. Thank you all.
@@DrBunnyMedicinal Thank you for your support!
@FlyingPlastics
Thanks SO much.
It's SUCH a pain to try to catch them on mobile 😣😑
You're a legend!
(on pc I can go frame by frame and it's not that hard, but on phone I have to go back 5 sec, which sucks)
Thank you FlyingPlastics, you saved me some time!
I think this was the chillest fox rescue I've ever seen
He was certainly very relaxed!
A kind gentle man thanks for the rescue.
I love watching these fox rescue videos straight from southern Brazil. God bless you for dedication to this service.
That fox is one cool customer. He had a sniff of the pole before he ran off just so he'll know you if you meet him in an alley one dark night.
Haha thanks! He was surprisingly relaxed!
Probably being fed by someone if they stop to sniff during an interaction with any human. Someone has been feeding them by hand.
@@KesSharann good observation
At least he knows the stick.
@@wildlifeaid I believe you should send the animals a violent electric shock after releasing them so that they become afraid of humans and don't go near them.
That fox was so calm that I wonder if she/he has been a guest at Wildlife Aid before as a cub. Wild yes but knows when a human is trying to help.
Probably thinking if you hurt me I bite you. Simon didn't hurt it. So it didn't throw a fuss.
I don't know I imagine it could have been so anxious it went still & quiet?
It didn't have much choice but to be calm - it's head end was in the noose and the back end in the fence.
The way he single-handedly rescued the fox albeit taking all precautions is amazing. Kudos for his - the perfect, intelligent, surgical operation ! Long live their tribes ! !
When I was in the army, during a night patrol, I found a fox trapped in a poacher's steel lace... She was in a water stream, so we placed the truck on the shore to point lights where the fox was, then I went into the water with a comrade to free her... The lace was so tight against a metal fence in the stream, that I had no access to the wire... So I had to keep her up in my arms and turn around the fence poles to loosen the wire a little and cut her free... She did nothing to me, she knew I was freeing her... Finally, she run away, stopped a while looking at me, and then she was gone...
What a night Patrol it was...!!!
👍👍🙏 Well done!
Too bad you weren't able to catch the poacher.
@@Lengsel7 Well, few years before a poacher was killed by a guard in that area having trespassed the security perimeter at night...
I can tell you that after freeing the fox, I triggered level 0 alarm for the facility we were patrolling in, then we checked the fences all through the perimeter, and we removed more traps... Still I have some of them here at home...
I love how, after what must have been a terrifying experience, the young fox still had the curiosity to take a sniff of the grasper before shambling off. :-D I suspect Simon's voice must have a calming effect. Perhaps, after he retires someday, he could hire himself out to tell bedtime stories!
Haha! We will keep that in mind! :)
What a cute moment when the fox touched their nose to the pole before leaving!
It was a rather sedate release!

@@MohammadK-gz3py Он сказал спасибо и побежал домой.
The fox was aware that the man was helping him
His calmness and look indicate that
beautiful thing
That customer was cooperative and well pleased after the service. Thanks! 🙂
Awwww poor guy was really stuck. I'm glad he got rescued 💗 He looked so scared & tired but I think he knew you were there to help. Good job 👍
Thank you!
Awe, videos like this are good for the soul. His little sniff was a thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it, Doran :)
Always love the rescue of a animal...world needs more like you!🦊
Thanks so much :)
Thank you kind Sir for helping to free this Fox. God bless you🙏🏽
It is so frustrating to see this same problem over and over again. What can we do to educate the people? Well done Simon.
We agree, this is a problem that we are constantly facing - nearly every type of animal is susceptible to getting caught in netting!
You can help by spreading the word - many people don't even think about animals getting caught when they put up netting - it's only once an animal gets trapped, that they realise the danger they pose. If we can spread the word and encourage people to lift their nets a foot or so above ground, so many of these situations could be prevented!
Thank you for your support Robert :)
@@wildlifeaid So true and very similar to problems faced by marine life and fishing gear.
Check out these guys saving seals in Namibia (if you haven't already :) As always, much love and blessings!
ua-cam.com/video/jE3r_w8ljDI/v-deo.html
Educate kids in school for starters.. take your nets down!
ban football nets.
@@wildlifeaid as easy as taking the net a few feet off the ground. Simple but not thought of obviously. Why doesn't the packaging have in bold lettering a warning to never leave hanging on the ground. Un believable.
Nothing better than a animal morning smile. Thank you for your video
Thank you for the support Jerome :)
I have great respect for people helping weaker creatures. I hope your lives are full of happiness and joy!
Thankful for folks like you. Poor little guy, he knew you were just helping him at the end and peacefully walked away.
Thanks so much :)
no it didn't, in shock that it wasnt eaten
Such a patient little foxy!
He was indeed! We were all a little surprised!
Poor sweet beautiful little angel
You folks are literally the antidote to the misery that is 2020.
Thanks so much :)
@Vickie Shoemaker Thank you! That's so kind of you to say :)
I bet you they didn't remove the fence. Another fox might get stuck. Fox gets stuck in fence again, click to subscribe, click to like. Love how he first sets up the camera to film the fox before he starts to cut it loose.
@@IEDAeconomics The fence was removed once the fox was free, don't worry! Regarding the camera, after first seeing the fox, Simon had to run back to the car to get a set of cutters, but Lawrie stayed with the fox, hence seeing him in the shot :)
Go to war and find out what true misery is
So cute! 😍
How he sniffs at the tool AFTER being released!
I believe this fox understood somehow and loves you!
Hopefully he won't need our help in the future! :)
The foxy seemed to be in no hurry to leave. That showed how much he trusted the rescuer. Well done.
He was very calm surprisingly!
@@wildlifeaid a calm rescuer made a calm resquee.
Thank you and God bless you and all who helped you save this beautiful animal, one of Gods creatures. 🙏♥️🦊
Thank you Andrew :)
How prettily cool he is seen all through.
He will never forget this rescue operation and always be thankful.
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
"Never to be seen again." But the kindness lives on.
Amazing! I've seen so many critter rescues here and they all knew they were being saved & stayed calm, be it this furry friend or a whale wrapped in a net that swam from a huge distance toward a diver, it knew could & would help him. Our animal kingdom friends are much more intelligent, loving & compassionate then we will ever understand. They have as much right to this planet & a good life as we do. It is them & plant life that make it possible for us to live. We need to remember that everyday.
They do indeed :)
My heartiest thanks to Mr. Simon and also Wildlife Aid. Wish your good health Mr. Simon, best of luck
Very well played, sir. Thank you for rescuing that beautiful fox.
That is such a good fox, not really fighting or trying to snap, being patient considering it must hurt being that tight
There is a similar video of large dog that got twisted and caught up in a torn patio awning on the side of a house. A police officer climbed over the fence and used a knife to cut away the very tight fabric. The moment the dog was free he leaped at the officer and I thought he was going to bite, but he was giving the officer a big hug and his tail was wagging like crazy. So sweet!
When Simon said "...something doesn't go wrong." the fox looked like "Tell me about it!".
He is so pretty and he was realy calm, though. Happy he was allowed to go home immediately.
So are we - rescue/releases are always the best!
The little hesitation till it realizes that it’s not restricted anymore is nice :-)
This one is actually very patient. Well done!
Super-sweet! And oh, so needed. Thank you and many blessings from across the sea.
Thank you for your support :)
What a hero you are the look on the foxes face was priceless he knew he was being rescued bless you
It ws lovely to watch him turn calmly and say thank you before leaving. Well mannered fox.
Thanks so much. It was a lovely release!

@British Naturalist Thanks! If you wanted to donate, you can via our website at www.wildlifeaid.org.uk/donate-to-waf :)
@The Central Scrutinizer Many thanks. We have several sets of cutters in the car but, in his rush to help, Simon grabbed the wrong set!
@The Central Scrutinizer Not at all! We have a bag of cutting kit that (until recently) wasn't very organised, so it would have taken longer to find the 'ideal' tool than it would to start with what was easiest to grab. This has now been organised though, so hopefully it should be easier in the future :)
Thanks for the kind words too!
Спасибо Вам, добрые люди!
God bless people like you. 1000 hugs and more from Italy
Thanks so much :)
@@wildlifeaid thanks to you♥️
I just know there is a wonderful place waiting in Heaven for people like you. Thank you for your compassion and respect. 👍🏻👍🏼👍🏾
Thanks very much!
"So... I can just go now then?"
"Cheerio!"
Bless him he knew you were there to help so stayed still and waited patiently
He did indeed :)
I think it was simply s matter of if you hurt me I will go crazy and bite you. But Simon didn't so it didn't need to throw a fuss.
It's like he was saying thank you before he left. Unreal.💞🦊💞
Thanks for helping along the way❤
Какие вы молодцы!!! Спасайте животных.!!! Как бы вам помочь! Рад что есть такие люди!
Лучше через переводчик писать, не уверен, что они реагируют на не английские комменты. На счет помощи - они принимают пожертвования, в конце видео есть ссылка на Патреон, там можно на ежемесячный донат подписаться.
It's about time people realised that their gardens are outside, where nature lives! , don't use horrible stuff like netting which causes nothing but suffering to any animal that gets stuck in it.
It certainly is a massive problem for wildlife - raising nets a foot or so above the ground can help as so much wildlife can simply walk underneath them!
@@wildlifeaid Isn't there wildlife-friendly netting, where the holes are too small for animals to get tangled in? Or is that type of netting still harmful?
@@ShadeSlayer1911 All netting is dangerous for some animals, birds, snakes, ect. Hole size does not matter as animals can still get tangled in them.
@@ShadeSlayer1911 A little twist and it doesn't matter what size the netting is. A stray end of rope can tangle an animal.
@@wildlifeaid Simon I know you must be SO sick of saying it but maybe it should just be a standard part of every video involving these accursed nets - admonish people to raise the netting or put the toy goal posts away when the children have finished playing with them! Truly sad watching this same scene play out again and again needlessly.
Super Tierrettung ,Danke ! Der Fuchs wird immer Dein Freund sein !
Schau oft ,er wird Dich Besuchen ! Tiere sind Dankbar !
Thank you for your service to those that can't ask for help.
I loved this thank you for helping him
Glad you enjoyed it Cynthia!
Sweet procedure; thank you for saving that little man. He didn't run off fast like you would expect but just sort of walked away slowly. I love it when people help animals.
Thanks so much. He was very calm luckily!
@@wildlifeaid Thank you for the things you do to save and support our animal kingdom
God bless you for saving that fox. Wish there were more men like you in this crazy world
Thank you very much!
At the end, the fox was like "Wait...you guys aren't going to eat me? Well, bye!"
He did seem a little surprised!
@@wildlifeaid lol
@@wildlifeaid great job you guys!
not bye... i better leave before he changes his mind, That guy is stupid. I woulda eat me
Simon, another great rescue. If I could make a suggestion -- consider adding a good, sharp pair of bandage scissors (aka EMT shears) to your field kit. I think you'll find them easier and safer to use than straight shears in some of these situations. Your veterinarians might have a spare pair lyng around.
Thanks! We have a set of EMT shears somewhere in the car, but it usually just depends on what we find first!
God bless this man for helping out Mr.Fox! There are good people out there! There just a dime a dozen.
Thanks so much :)
Loved these kind of videos when humans help animals in distress. Wonderful, thanks for setting the poor soul free
Thanks so much :)
Love the expression “right pickle”. Think I’ll start using it.
I see so many foxes run over near the side of the road. Such a shame. On one occasion i was driving my lorry along a small countryroad, and it was pooring rain. Sure enough there was a fox sitting on his bum, like a dog would and waiting just on the edgde of a field waiting to cross the road. I even made eyecontact. Smart fox that one!! True story. It was such a funny sight. Glad to see this one is rescued. Hope he doesn’t get roadkilled
Blessings to you for using your gift to make the world a better place than you found it. You have my heart 💜❤
kindness is awesome and cost nothing but does so much x
Excellent save Mr Cowel those netting in private yards should all so be banned. They must think before they buy such horreable netting those things kill many wild life it is a crying shame. Poor animals I feel sorry for them and it is us human that should know better. Love your channel it is great. Love you. Love South Africa.👍🐆🐾🌍🆓🆓❤
Glad you enjoyed it Jean! Netting is sadly, the cause of a lot of wildlife injuries and fatalities :(
3:01 Fox: Thanks
^^ another foxy is saved. I love foxes the most~
Thanks very much, glad to hear it! :)
Thank God for people that love and respect nature wildlife and precious Woodlands
That's awesome, we need more people like that around to help animals and people.
Simon: We saved a fox
Roy Keane: It's there job!
Their
It was like the fox knew you were there to help him. He did'nt put up much of a struggle.
He was surprisingly relaxed luckily!
And when he left he did it slowly, he didn't run for his life. He felt very calm and safe. Lovely video!
Didnt strugle cause they had the thing on its neck holding it down so it couldnt move.
What an angel you are, sir!
💜🖤💙🤍💛🧡🤎💚
Everytime I get so angry at all the crap and bad news that permeates the internet and need a break and some good news, I COME TO ANIMAL SAVING VIDEOS! The Seals, the Foxs, the cats and dogs, and all the life in between. What a great job that must be to save animals in need, particularly wild ones! Thanks for the work and the videos to cheer me up!
I am sorry I missed it I was walking home from school and when I got home I was crying but I am okay now
But
Keep up the good work ❤️👏
I hope whatever upset you will not happen again x
thanks a lot... i am living with a wild fox in my garden, for years now, she or he the nicest , cutest and loveliest creature i ever met ... still shy , not feeded , and always happy, to show me, the big rats and mouses she catched ... with long eye contact to me and the feeling , that she or he wants to say: have a look , how i take care, of you and your property ...
since these days, i forbid to hunt and shoot foxes on my land ...
His little sniff of the pole and glance at him was his "thank you, thank you". You showed the world how to do this properly and to get rid of that ridiculous, dangerous netting. Bravo....well, well done.
love the little "thanks" boop once hes free
Seeing the foxes face I wonder if they have a sense of humiliation....
“dangit... now HUMANS have to help me...“ ;)
He did look a little embarrassed I have to say!
@@wildlifeaid I know, right? That was the first thing came to mind when he was looking into the far horizon just not acknowledging ANYTHING... "just let it go away" :-)
@@Tantejay 🤣😂🤣😂💕💕 yes. He DID look embarrased... I never thought about it til you mentioned it! Great observation.
My father had a wonderful dog, a friendly righteous packleader. As a half-breed whippet he also always was the fastest. Then one day a greyhound just easily ran past him. That was the only time he started grumpy growling at another dog. So I vote for yes, they feel humiliation. 😁
Now this is how humans can start helping instead of hunting when we factory foods available.
Fox : sniff, sniff...” oh that’s what was holding me, very interesting, thank you “
That was amazing to watch.
We heard a small fox crying as it was stuck between our fence and the neighbours. It was a joint effort to help her out, took about an hour and we had to remove parts of the fence. This was at the beginning of lockdown and hard to get any immediate help. Once freed, she ran, stopped and looked at us and ran off.
That was 8 Months ago. She visits us almost daily and hangs in our garden, even coming up to us for a pet. Brings a lot of joy in our lives.
What a lovely story! Thanks for helping her! :)
A beautiful contribution to help an animal in trouble. Thank you indeed.
All Animals Possess a consciousness and Intelligence. They are hunted for sport and farmed for food. The look in the eyes of that fox, the understanding of what was happening, the relief and thankfulness as he touched the pole with his nose before departing, How Can They Be Hunted? Hunting is not a sport nor control cull, it is killing.
And Vulpes vulpes does it without remorse so attempts to guilt trip humans fails.
Tell that to the thousands of people who are injured in deer-versus-car incidents across America because they have no other predators left.
Hunting is an important aspect of wildlife management and NEEDS to happen, especially in situations like where deer over here have no natural predators left and would otherwise overpopulate, kill humans, cause all manner of havoc.
There's no need to hunt foxes, but there is a valid purpose to hunt critters.
WHY on earth are you using netting every where in UK?? Its not that normal in my country.. its more fences.. like solid, without gaps...
It was the netting of a football goal.
Fodboldnet du ved, ikk å
@@leifvejby8023 hvis du kigger efter i videoen vil du se at det IKKE er fodboldnettet... fodboldnettet er hvidt.. Det ræven er fanget i er grønt...
@@jydeinden Det har du ret i, det havde jeg ikke set - du har ret, det er helt tovligt!!
Jeg har et par gange taget fugle ind i badeværelset og klippet dem ud af mejsebollenet, så de er også farlige. Badeværelset fordi det ville være nemmest at fange dem igen dér, skulle de slippe fri, inden jeg havde klippet dem ud.
Same as fishhing nets . 😐
There are not many like you. You made my day. Thank you.
Wow! I am really impressed and happy to see the poor baby fox being rescued. It seemed relieved and thankful to the rescuer. Well done!
That netting seems to cause no end of trouble.
Indeed it does :(
The bane of every soccer ball that just wants to be free
Thank you for rescuing that beautiful little fox 😍😍

Well done. We need more people that care about wildlife like this in the world
Thanks so much :)
