Employees at Virginia's Richmond Wildlife Center have come up with a unique way to stop an abandoned newborn red fox from becoming too familiar with humans. In a bid to prevent the cub from "imprinting" on humans, the employees are feeding the red fox kit, wearing a fox mask.
The incident made headlines after the official Facebook page of Richmond Wildlife Center dropped a video, showing one of its employees feeding milk to a tiny kit. In the clip, the employee can be seen wearing a massive red fox head mask, on top of a coat.
