This Baby Fox Was Rescued By An Unlikely New Friend, And You Won't Believe Who It Is

A lioness encountered an injured baby fox in the middle of the road. She didn't seem very interested in it, but the fox wasn't taking any chances.

The Lioness didn't seem very interested in eating the little guy, but she soon noticed it wasn't just the two of them.

A hungry male lion was watching them down the road.

The male lion was far more interested in the little creature, and the lioness didn't seem to mind.

When the cubs showed up things looked even less promising for the injured fox.

After hanging out for a while, the Lion decided to go in for the kill.

But then the Lioness decided she had grown a little fond of the fox, and wasn't so keen on him becoming dinner.

So she told the Male lion to stuff it.

He wasn't pleased, but he took the hint.

So everyone stepped off, and was chill for a while.

And then, when everyone was looking elsewhere...

The lil fox was able to run off to safety!

A happy ending! Sometimes nature is full of tragedy, but everyone so often, even in the most dire of circumstances, someone gets a happy ending.
