Earlier in the year we reported on the opening of Barnaby's swish new enclosure at the centre, and the work that he is doing to raise awareness of the reality of the fur trade and fox hunting.

Ruth Gaisford of The Bucks Goat Centre took to Facebook to wish Barnaby many happy returns, and gave followers an insight into how he spent his day, as the Stoke Mandeville site is currently closed due to Covid-19.

She said: "It was Barnaby’s first Birthday this week so we made him a duck egg omelette with a blueberry topping, which he loved.

"He decided to hide some of it just in case there is a shortage of food in the coming weeks!"

Barnaby the silver fox is from a family of foxes which were saved from the fur trade, and is now an ambassador for his species to help change people's minds about hunting and wearing fur.
