Wild Paws, Volume 1: The Fox Farm

A gripping saga about foxes Lukas and Ty, which delves into themes of being different, mental illness, and the journey of self-discovery.

Ty has never felt like the other forest foxes. Instead of being brave, cunning, and clever, he shies away from fighting, is no good at hunting, and even gets bullied by other forest animals

One day, Ty decides to prove he can catch his own meal — and accidentally winds up locked up on a fox farm! There he meets Lukas, a sheltered fox whose paws have never even felt grass.

Ty promises to show Lukas the world… But will they first be able to escape their cages?
