A fox has taken a trip on the London Underground.

Commuters at Edgware Road Station were surprised to see the urban fox wander onto a Tube carriage on Monday evening (August 6).

The fox made its way onto the Circle Line and was even seen climbing onto the seats to get a more comfortable ride.

A commuter, Stephen Ebert, noticed the fox and photographed it getting onto the Tube.

He tweeted the picture as well as explaining: "As the doors opened I boarded and immediately became aware of something down at my feet. At first, I was not sure what it was - and then I realised it was a fox.

"It looked young and was probably a cub. I quickly snapped it with my phone and posted it on Twitter."

Student Harriet Horn also tweeted about the fox, saying: "Sooo there was a fox on my Tube...It was so cute. It hopped off and went into a hole (I think). It looked like it had gone to safety."
