Everyone needs some down time


Very cute baby fox in trouble!

Litter cost lives!

This hungry fox cub went out to explore the garden and his nose led him to a discarded can of lovely smelly food! Full of curiosity, he couldn't quite reach the food without putting his head inside and then disaster!

The sharp edges of the can made it impossible for him to free himself. Fortunately, Simon was alerted to his troubles and was able to free him very quickly. Phew! The cub made a very quick exit, back to the safety of his den under the shed!

This chap was lucky. So many birds and mammals are not so lucky, being injured, or even killed, by carelessly discarded items. Tin cans, plastic ring holders for cans, rubber bands; these can all cause serious harm. We have seen too many incidents involving litter, and each time it was completely avoidable if some care had been taken to dispose of the litter responsibly.

Be a wildlife hero and bin your litter!

GoPro - Guy ditches his football to save a fox!


Published on Oct 29, 2014
A kind man in his dressing gown helps wildlife rescuer, Simon Cowell, to save an injured fox!

The football fan found the poor fox curled up under a hedge. The fox was very weak, due to a wounded back leg. Leaving the England football game on TV, the gentleman fed the fox with "chopped sausages and cheese" before Simon arrived and brought the animal back the to the wildlife hospital.

After two weeks of care, the fox's wounds healed up nicely and he was released back into the newly-proclaimed fox lover/football fan's garden, where he was found!
