After intake, the corsac fox underwent a thorough medical evaluation to assess the extent of its injuries. The animal received fluid therapy, treatment for minor wounds, and nutritional support tailored to its species. During this time, human interaction was kept to a minimum to reduce stress and encourage natural behaviors.

As the fox regained strength, rehabilitation focused on rebuilding endurance and hunting instincts. The animal was gradually introduced to a larger enclosure designed to mimic its natural environment, allowing it to practice movement and foraging skills essential for survival in the wild.

Once the fox met all health and behavioral benchmarks, the final step was release. The fox was returned to a protected area within its native habitat, where it could safely reintegrate into the ecosystem. This successful outcome reflects the importance of ethical rehabilitation practices and community support in wildlife conservation efforts.
