Heathrow Airport: Lost fox rescued after wandering into terminal

It's very easy to get lost in a huge airport, and that's what happened recently to a young fox.

He was discovered by workers at Heathrow in its central terminal. It's thought he got separated from his mother and wandered into the building.

Following a chase around departures, he was outfoxed by animal welfare workers and picked up near a coffee shop and given the name Nero.

But it was happy ending for Nero as he was checked over and then set free on nearby Harmondsworth Moor a few days later.
