Seven Fox Kits Rescued From Virginia Window Well, Reunited With Mother

The league turned the rescue into guidance for spring wildlife encounters by directing questions and distress reports to 703-746-4444.

Overview

  • The Animal Welfare League of Alexandria, which rescued seven kits Tuesday, said the mother watched nearby and led them away once freed.
  • Animal Services officers lifted the foxes from a home’s window well after the siblings followed one another into the pit.
  • No injuries were reported, and the family left the area together after the reunification.
  • In a lighthearted post, the league dubbed the kits 'little daredevils' and joked that one bad choice drew in the rest.
  • As a spring reminder, officials urged residents to leave young wildlife alone unless trapped or hurt and to call 703-746-4444 for help or questions.
