Wellesley wildlife is making itself seen this spring, and the latest to show off is this fox family.
Thanks to Jared Parker for sharing the photos. He’s hoping they might inspire people to get out on the town’s trails and protect them.

I saw a really skinny looking, unhappy fox on Hampden St. on Saturday, August 12.
Seeing baby foxes is awesome and seeing them close to a house is rare.
Getting out on the trails is always a good idea but if a lot of people see them and make noise or try to approach them, the mother fox will hide them.
If you are lucky enough to see a fox family, don’t move and stay very quiet and they will continue with their playful antics.
