Actually, I do not like the word “skulk” in describing a group of foxes. It supports the misleading belief that foxes are devious and sinister or nasty. I don’t believe that. I like them. I want to help them as they struggle to survive during their short lives in the human urban environment. Let’s be kind of foxes. And don’t be squeamish about disease and noise and all that kind of stuff. They keep out of the way and avoid people. Just leave them alone if you can’t help them.
By the way, sarcoptic mange affects foxes a lot and it causes a huge amount of distress in them. You want to help them in the UK you can go to a website run by charity provides a homeopathic treatment for foxes. You simply put some drops on their food and if you do that consistently over a couple of months it gets rid of the mange. It is very satisfying. I heartily recommend it. If you want to find this product Google “homeopathic remedy fox mange”. There are actually two different homeopathic remedies which are written about. If you can’t find it on Google then find an article on this website about it. Use the search box at the top of the website and you will be rewarded.
