Originally from County Kilkenny in the southeast of Ireland, Patsy Gibbons has become an international hero, despite himself. A veterinarian and animal lover (he owns four dogs, cats and lots of ducks and chickens), one day he discovered an abandoned female fox on the road. He came to her aid, saving her and keeping the animal with him, which he soon named Gráinne. His actions, though simple, caused a stir in the area.
Later, hikers discover other abandoned fox cubs and are sentenced to death returning them to him. Once again, the animals decided to stay and the man named them Minnie and Henry. This is Mr. Gibbons surrounded by three foxes that quickly allow their benefactor to tame them. The person who wants to return them to the wild and their wild state must quickly face the truth: they have adopted him and do not want to separate themselves from him, which has brought him criticism, especially especially from Wildlife Restoration Ireland.
