Nov. 24 (UPI) — An animal rescue group in Pennsylvania announced it has located and freed a fox seen wandering with a plastic drainage pipe stuck around its neck since October.<\/p>\n

Good Boy Dog Recovery said the red fox<\/a> was first seen with the pipe stuck around its neck in October, and rescuers had been searching for the animal in the Broomall, Delaware County, area ever since.\n<\/p>\n

The fox, nicknamed Sly by rescuers, was finally captured Saturday evening.<\/p>\n

The animal was taken to Pocono Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center, which reported the fox<\/a> — renamed Lady Sly after being found to be female — “was a very cooperative patient” and allowed the pipe to be cut away from her neck without the need for sedation.<\/p>\n

Lady Sly was vaccinated for rabies and distemper and was returned to the wild on the same day as her capture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nov. 24 (UPI) — An animal rescue group in Pennsylvania announced it has located and freed a fox…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":43355,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[2600,8773,18228,28,30,29,18229],"class_list":{"0":"post-43354","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-pennsylvania","8":"tag-animals","9":"tag-funny","10":"tag-odd","11":"tag-pennsylvania","12":"tag-pennsylvania-headlines","13":"tag-pennsylvania-news","14":"tag-weird"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43354","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43354"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43354\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/43355"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43354"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
