Fox and the bound? This vixen got her head stuck in metal flooring

A curious fox who got her head stuck gave firefighters a whole new take on a brush with danger.

The vixen was found by workers in Bordesley Green, Birmingham, at about 07:00 BST, West Midlands Fire Service said.

Crews used specialist equipment to cut through the metal flooring that had ensnared her.

The RSPCA then took the animal away from the scene for further treatment. She is understood to be safe and well.

"Who let the fox out? We did," crews said on social media, external following the events on Garrison Street.
