Well, there goes my theory that it was Barbara Mikulsky out on the campaign trail. Nobody could ever mistake her for a fox, even an especially mangy fox.

Ping!

Animal control has custody of the fox and plans to rehabilitate the animal to release back into the wild.

Here are some of the original pictures of the 'other' one... I did guess that it was ~something~ with mange... coyote or dog of some kind.

I have seen hairless coyotes with mange in south Texas.

They determined it was a fox with sarcoptic mange.

I told ya it looked mangy.

As animal control officers approached the fox, it stood up on its hind legs, clutched its chest, and began shouting "OHH NOOOO!!!! THIS IS IT!!!!.....THIS IS THE BIG ONE!!!!!"

Sarcoptic mange is known as scabies in people. My nephew found this out the hard way, when, as a medical student, he volunteered to go work with the poor in Haiti, with his church group. The poor guy nearly itched himself into insanity.

You know what they say, "no good deed goes unpunished".
