THIS rare “one in a million” white fox cub has been nursed back from the brink of death on a diet of dog food.

The four-week-old cub, named Casper after the all-white cartoon ghost, was found starving to death in Flackwell Heath near High Wycombe, Bucks.

He was cared for at St Tiggywinkles wildlife hospital in Bucks where staff now plan to give the cub a home for life.

“We managed to save him just in time and he’s doing great now,” said Les Stocker, founder of the hospital.

“Casper is so rare he has got to be one in a million.

“In 30 years, I’ve only ever heard of one other white fox and that had been shot and stuffed!

“I don’t think we’ll release him back into the wild – we don’t want him to get shot.

“We plan to build him a special fox enclosure as he really is special.”
