The Face of our Apathy de Neil Aldridge de Kenn (North Somerset)
Lugar: Kent, UK
Descripción: A red fox (Vulpes vulpes) looks out from the safety of her rehab enclosure at a secure location in Kent, UK. Her face bares the wounds of a brutal dog attack and is a reminder of our apathy towards the natural world. The infection has eaten away at her face, permanently exposing her teeth. She will return to a wild life thanks to the work of the Fox Project.
