Every once in awhile, my exotic animal vet, Alex Wolf and his assistant Jean Jacobs, will talk me into adopting a special needs red fox. Such is the case in 2001. Pharaoh came into my life when he was seven weeks old. He had a broken pelvis, broken jaw and has grand mal seizures. Stabilized and on the mend, but no longer able to live in the wild due to permanent impairments, he will live out the rest of his life in my care.

A few photos of Pharaoh at the vets.
