Another dead fox in Monroe County leaves behind orphaned young and that's putting a strain on a local wildlife center. Fox and other animals are being brought to the Pocono Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center in Hamilton Township with gunshot wounds. And many of those animals aren't currently in season. The end result is the orphaned babies are causing the nonprofit to be stretched too thin. Fox babies seem to be multiplying at Pocono Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center but the reason is disturbing. The latest two kits recently arrived because their mother had been shot in the head and did not survive. Pocono Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center Co-Executive Director Susan Downing says, "What was most devastating is they didn’t even check to see if they killed her so for two days she was suffering."
