# when I come to release it
I'll do it in the style of shawshank redemption. probably.

# The RSPCA would most likely deal with releasing him.
We have to remember your garden and the surrounding area is his territory; it'd be cruel to dump him far away.

# Joking aside, I'd hope he'd get release back here in the garden, or even treated here.
Plus his mum might be nearby. Hopefully it's just a bit of conjunctivitis and fleas and can be easily treated. fortunately I have big motorbike gloves so I won't get bitten.

# Yeah, it'd be a good idea to tell the RSPCA what the fox's symptoms seem to be.
All being well, all he'd need is an injection, maybe a flea bath, and he'll be out and about within a day or two.

I think one of the foxes that comes into my garden has mange. My neighbour said it was losing fur, but I haven't seen it in quite a while. I hope it's okay.

# Mange is indeed a terrible affliction.
The little fella should be back fairly soon, if you've baited it and all that. Then again, the weather's been a bit shit lately so I dunno.
