July 1, 2008 Three fox kits were released into Big Swan Headwaters Preserve in a continued partnership between swan Conservation Trust and Walden’s Puddle, a wild animal rescue and rehabilitation center.  The kits were rescued when their mother was killed after they had made a den under a shed.

Foxes are are under increasing threat by the invasion of coyotes, with the significantly larger coyotes pushing out the much smaller foxes from their native territory and habitat.
