Fox Guardians

Fox Guardians is a charitable organization that promotes respect and compassion for foxes. We create educational and entertaining films about foxes to counter balance the unjustified negative press foxes get. We also monitor and support vulnerable urban foxes and have been involved in multiple fox rescues and launched campaigns such as the recent Protect Rustington foxes campaign. Fox Guardians was founded by Dora Nightingale and to find out why, click here >>
