Jogger keeps running after bitten by fox – with fox attached to arm

Grayfox NcI swear some of these stories make you want to avoid animals and people altogether. An Arizona jogger was attacked by a rabid fox on a trail near Prescott. The animal clamped onto her arm – and she ran a mile to her car with the fox still attached.

The jogger pried the fox off of her, tossed it in her trunk, and then drove to the hospital. While she was running, the fox bit her foot. And when she grabbed it by the neck, it then bit her arm. She wanted to make sure it was tested for rabies, so that’s why she ran all the way to her car with it still biting her.

The fox also bit an animal control officer. Both people will receive rabies vaccinations.

That is one determined jogger. I wouldn’t want to run into her in a dark alley. Or jogging trail. She would possibly win by sheer tenacity.
