"So I kind of, I had a ball in my hand, so I kind of approached the fox, I threw the ball at it and I kind of made myself as big as possible ... Basically, I made sure the girl was alright and carried her up to the front of the house and just kind of calmed her down a little bit, talked her through the situation."
