Here is a juvenile fox we got in with mange 6 weeks ago.....
I did a skin scrape and saw a TON of mites. I sent the slide to a small animal practitioner and she said she'd never seen that many....ever....hee hee
After 6 weeks of anti-parasite medications, here is how he looks!
easy peasy:)

that doesn't look like adequate substrate for that poor fox. what do you keep animals on there? metal shelving??
we don't have any ground space for outdoor caging unfortunately:( they are on a fake wood deck so it's solid, the shelf he's standing on is inside the cage and only for enrichment, so he can climb around. Since our housing is temporary it works well. Also, many of our animals are sick so we want to be able to adequately disinfect.
