When Foxes Attack: Jogger And Vermin In Fight To The Death
A JOGGER is enlivening her experience by wearing a fox, hanging from her arm by its teeth.
Blood sports enthusiasts are invited to take their pick: jogger or fox. Win-win. The woman tried to choke the animal, but no luck. The fox tries to bite her in two. But, again, no luck.
To add to the tableau, the creature is rabid. Not, the jogger, but the fox. The foam around the jogger’s slack maw is the product of stomach acids and yoghurt-based drinks.
The fox takes hold. The Jogger runs to her car a mile away. She makes good time and – who knows, as a training ritual it may catch on. She prizes the fox’s filthy mouth from her person and throws the animal in the boot.
A statement released by the local Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office notes that “it is very difficult to prevent the attack of a wild rabid animal once in progress.”
Go on…
“Although containing the animal for testing is beneficial, immediate treatment is always the priority.”
Indeed. Containment is best. For such reason to joggers sport bum bags, fanny packs and much loose skin…

When I read about this - last week, I thought oh my gosh, a real life Sci Fi movie experience of the worst.
Too bad for the fox, but rabies ? Anyone remember the story from a couple of years ago - featured on GMA……. 15 yr old girl gets bitten by a bat with rabies in her home … she cleans the bite wound on her hand with peroxide - never tells her parents.. Sometime later she presents with rabbid symptoms is placed in a hospital - a team of doctors put her in a coma for about 9 weeks - she survives but the outcome is not good.
She and her parents are interviewed on GMA per Diane Sawyer.. her eyesight is filled with violent shakes.. I wonder how she’s doing today.
