SOS

People, people—what happened to this fox’s tail?




(This one's a crappy pic of the head, but I wanted you to see that discoloration on her flank.)

Apparently red foxes get mange from a blind microscopic mite, but this one seems to be a grey fox? Looking at these pix, maybe she has lost more than her tail fur, so she does have mange?

What can I do to help her?

Stop press: This is not a fox, it's a coyote! I now have a coyote visiting me.
