The Fox Attack Twins

Pauline and Nick Koupparis tell Sophie Raworth about the night their nine-month-old twin daughters were attacked by a fox as they lay in their cots.

Pauline and Nick Koupparis speak for the first time about the night their nine-month-old twin daughters were attacked by a fox as they lay in their cots. Filmed with their daughters as they recover, the couple tell Sophie Raworth how they found Lola and Isabella bleeding and crying in pain with the fox still in the bedroom.

The surgeon who treated the girls reveals the long-term prognosis for their injuries. There were initial fears Isabella might lose the use of her arm.

The programme asks if this was a freak incident or whether we really have anything to fear from urban foxes. Staff and parents at the Brighton nursery where a three year-old boy was bitten by a fox last week are also interviewed.
