Look: Animal rescuers help fox with head stuck in plastic container

Sept. 18 (UPI) -- Animal rescuers in England came to the assistance of a hungry fox that went searching for food and ended up with its head stuck in a plastic container.

Secret World Wildlife Rescue said on social media that its response team was called out to help a fox that "had managed to get its head stuck in a container whilst curiously looking for food."

The rescuers were unable to pull the container off the fox's head, so the animal was taken to Green Pastures Vets for additional assistance.

"The fox was able to be released that evening with no injuries," the post said.

The wildlife rescue said the incident serves as a reminder to make sure all trash is properly disposed of so it doesn't pose a danger to wildlife.
