The cute cub got its head stuck in a can of dog food but was quick to turn to cozy up to the rescuer once he was freed

This is the moment a super cute fox cub was freed from a tin can - and then said thank you to his rescuer.

The adorable animal was spotted scurrying around a back garden when the homeowner stepped outside to help the stricken animal. The helpful man eased the can off the baby fox's head, revealing a shaken but relieved little critter.

Grateful for the act of kindness, the button-nosed fox approached the rescuer to thank him for the help for some comforting pats on the back.

“I was always finding empty pet food cans at the end of the garden,” the man wrote on his YouTube channel. “I suspect after the foxes raid dustbins they take their plunder to somewhere they think is safer to eat it: my garden!”


Clearly it is a safer place for the animals to eat their findings, as there is a kind-hearted human watching over them.
