Mr Allen said: “While we cannot be specific it is toxin, the fox was showing behavioural indications of poisoning.

“What is suspicious and worrying for us is that the caller said that there have actually been other suspicious fox deaths in the neighboring meadow location over the last number of years. 

“We are keen to speak to anyone with first-hand knowledge of this so we can look into it further.”

Anyone with info needs to call the RSPCA’s appeals line on 0300 123 8018.
