When Yanchik the fox was rescued after a vicious dog attack, there was little hope for his survival. The nerves in his neck were severely damaged, leaving it bent and twisted, and his tail was contorted.
Upon rescue, poor Yanchik's body was so weakened that administering most conventional medications—even a necessary rabies vaccination—was too risky. Instead, doctors began a milder yet safer treatment protocol, slowly nursing this little fox back to health. Over time, they've been able to employ a broader range of medications for treatment and complete his vaccinations.
While Yanchik is on the road to recovery and regaining his strength, he isn't done healing yet and needs your help to cover his ongoing medical care.
