Didn’t used to see foxes in daylight when I lived in London. I have seen a ton of photos just recently showing just that. Is the population exploding, or are they becoming a little more comfortable in their urban environments which is changing their nocturnal behaviour?
At this time of year?
Looks like it’s got mange.
They always say not to feed the foxes because they will lose the ability to hunt, which has to be nonsense, they will eat the free food, and then continue to hunt ..free food it’s an addition not a replacement
Get in touch with one of the fox charities (eg Fox Angels) for some mange medicine.
5 or 6 drops on a rich tea biscuit once a day for a couple weeks and it’ll be right as rain.

That’s not a healthy fox. Don’t encourage them

Our resident. There are 3 others but this one lives at the bottom of our garden.
You can find treatment for mange and leave it outside for the fox to eat so they recover.
Not looking very well.
There’s a super healthy one round my way at the moment, proper roidy looking dude.
Looks diseased
