The Saltholme Wildlife Reserve and Discovery Park near Middlesbrough, Teesside, is now home to three fox cubs born here just a few days ago.

Given the fact that said reserve accommodates several bird species, there is little denying that the cubs will be eating such feathered creatures for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Daily Mail says that visitors to this reserve have taken quite a liking to these fox cubs, and that some even pay more attention to them than they do to the birds.

“The RSPB works to protect all nature. At Saltholme, we are trying to get as close to a natural balance as possible, and provide a home for all wildlife - that means predators as well as prey have their place here,” site Manager David Braithwaite told the press.
