“These 7 fox kits all ended up trapped in a window well, proving that when one sibling makes a questionable life choice . . . the rest will absolutely follow,” wrote the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria in an Instagram post sharing the sweet rescue video. “The good news? Mom was close by, patiently supervising the whole adventure and safely escorted her little daredevils to a better location once they were freed.”
