012 - Foxes and the surprising danger of football nets

Today, I uncover an unexpected issue – foxes' fascination with football goal nets. 

Sharing a  tale from South London, I explore how these seemingly innocuous nets become perilous traps for curious foxes, leading to rather serious consequences. 

Drawing from real-life accounts by a wildlife rescue centre, I shed light on the hidden dangers these nets pose to urban wildlife. Join me as I unravel this intriguing issue and its unforeseen impacts, and discover how a simple garden item can pose a grave threat to unsuspecting animals.
