    Wild, but adorable at the same time. Beautiful capture. I'm always impressed with how you humanely handle all your rescues.

    Poor Damika! He just doesn't realize that you're not trying to hurt him. I love how you stay so patient with him!

    Reminds me of my rescuing feral cats. Amazing how they are able to squirm and wriggle their way out of our grasp with lightning speed...shows how they can survive amongst other predators. Great job in handling him so well!

    Aww poor little guy was so scared 🥺 But what a great job you all did!! I’m glad everyone, including Dimika, was safe throughout this process. I hope he settles in nicely at his new home!

    Mikayla not reacting to the biting was crucial. Dmika biting was purely out of defensiveness and had Mikayla retreated and reacted in fear, Dmika would have bitten harder and prevented her from being able to scruff him. When she calmly kept intruding in his space he was forced to accept it a bit because his main defense tactic didn't work.

    this is one of the reasons i love you guys. this grey fox has been there a couple of years at least. even with all the love etc.. you gave hiim, he still appears to not like and or trust humans.
    i love how you let him (and jade and felix) be the way they are. you dont push your love on them etc..
    ty for all you do

  • @DJDroz-gh5nt
    @DJDroz-gh5nt ปีที่แล้ว +26

    The sad truth about rescuing, well anything, is that you'll need to do things that might betray their trust. Poor thing, going from a huge fox yard to being trapped, likely again, in a cage. But it'll all be worth it once he meets his new friend. Thanks for doing what you do for animals.
    As if it wasn't enough he _looks_ like a squirrel, once he was trapped he _acted_ like one with how he bolted straight up the side!

    This video definitely shows the meaning of patience. Great job catching him. I think Freya did say she was worried. She is definitely super smart! Poor Demyka wasn’t having any of it. Hopefully he’ll forgive everyone and love being in FL with Callie. Sadly, I’m sure he’ll miss Nikita. Cheers from FL😺
