Employees of the Austin Animal Center answered a call from a concerned animal lover that a fox had one of his leg dangling on a wooden fence on Tuesday November 5. The employees at the animal rescue team were able to remove the fox who had his leg dangling on a fence safely and take the fox to the wildlife rescue to be examined by a veterinarian to be checked and most likely be released to the wild after being cured. The animal control employees are thankful that no one attempted to free the fox from the wooden fence since foxes have been known for having rabies on them. Link is upi.com/7761731003515 via @upi

We don't have rabies in Australia and we have strict import laws to try to prevent its introduction.
