ILLUSTRATION BY MARK GALACGAC
In Derbyshire, England, Phil and Jane Carter are used to seeing foxes on their lawn. But, the Telegraph reported, a Dec. 17 visitor to their garden caught their attention. Jane spotted a fox nosing around their turf looking for some- thing to eat while balancing on its front legs — the only legs it had — and yelled at her husband to come see it.

He got in touch with experts at the Derbyshire Nature Re- serve, who told him the fox was likely born with the dis- ability and had learned to sur- vive. While foxes are usually shy, the special animal hung around for about 45 minutes before it took off “like a rock- et,” Phil said.
