I love watching the "mom mode" kick in. There's no going back once that switch is hit. 🥰

Meet Hallux, the newest rescue pup introduced by the creator in a heartfelt video.

Hallux, likely an amber-colored domestic red fox, was urgently surrendered by a breeder.

This little fox needed immediate help due to significant injuries that left him without toes on one back foot and only one toe on the other.

His resilient and hopeful story starts here with his introduction.

The video delves into the possible causes of Hallux’s injuries.

It’s suspected that his mother, under stress, might have overgroomed him, leading to the loss of his toes.

Alternatively, his siblings could have caused the injuries during rough play.

Understanding the origins of his injuries underscores the importance of providing a safe and nurturing environment for all animals, especially vulnerable ones like Hallux.

Viewers witness Hallux’s first tentative steps on grass, a huge step for the little fox.

The rescue team gently introduces him to the other foxes, allowing them to sniff and familiarize themselves with their new companion.

Notable interactions with foxes like Finnegan and Seraphina are highlighted, showing the gentle and curious nature of these animals as they welcome Hallux into their midst.

The rescue operation for Hallux doesn’t stop at the initial care.

Plans are in place to transfer him to Clevyr Creatures Fox Sanctuary soon.

Reanna, the founder of Clevyr Creatures and one of the creator’s first fox adopters, is deeply passionate about fox rescue.

Her sanctuary promises a safe haven where Hallux can heal and thrive, surrounded by care and compassion.
