Foxes can be cute, but obviously care must be taken where there are young babies in the home. Our thoughts are with this mother, who must be very traumatized by this experience.
A fox dragged a one-month-old baby from his cot and mauled his hand, biting off one finger, it has been reported.
The boy was left seriously injured after the animal crept into his bedroom in Bromley, southeast London.
His mother was alerted by his screaming and rushed into his room to see his hand in the animal's mouth, the Mail On Sunday reported.
After a short struggle, the mother managed to free him, but by then his finger had been ripped off.
Plastic surgeons were able to reattach the boy's finger and he is said to be recovering well at home.
