ZOO OFFICIALS CAPTURE FOX RUNNING WILD IN CITY STREET
Captured while trotting calmly down a State Street alley early today, a perfect silver fox has found its home at Wildwood Zoo.
Keepers chuckled when asked for a statement to the press. They expect a fox farm to place a claim on the valuable animal within twenty-four hours.
The fox was in perfect condition, with a deep, rich black coat, tufted with snow white tips on each hair.
The Mayor has already offered to convert the pelt into a cape for his wife, should an owner fail to claim the animal.
Jim Drake shuddered.
"I was drunker than I had any business being last night," he said finally. "Did it all happen, what I saw?"
Puffy Adams grinned woefully. He drew his arm from behind his back and displayed a clean, bandaged wrist.
"I got teeth marks an inch deep in my wrist," he said. "What do you think?"'
Drake was out of bed in one bound. He pulled his slippers on hurriedly.
