What to do if a fox approaches you?

Answer 1

I recommend that you make no contact with it at all and try to avoid the fox if its in your`e garden view through glass or in a zoo

Id rather spend 12 hours at work the 4 hours in Accident & Emergency

I was cycling to work and a fox was on a rounderbout (150 yards) and i said with a muffled voice "i wont bother you and there will be no problems" - it diddent - the fox started approaching me as i was walking with my bicycle - i kept on walking with the bike keeping it between me and the fox but the bloody thing kept getting closer (4 meters by now) i turned my head away for a moment and it had gained 3 meters on me in moments - needless to say i was not hanging around i skipped into my bike and pedaled as hard and as fast as i could under an adrenaline burst - IT CHASED ME for 300+ feet keeping up with me - i used every gear sequentially to get away from it and im glad i did.

Answer 2

no, i dont think it has anything to do with the police i would keep an eye on the fox and call the SSPCA or RSPCA.(:

Answer 3

Foxes will almost never approach a human as they try to avoid such confrontations. If a fox does approach, it is either sick or an escaped pet. Avoid contact.
