Not all Raccoon rescues are the same

Rescuing a Raccoon is no walk in the park,  depending on the situation; we put ourself in danger every single day.   It's important to always give wildlife space and to call for help if you are not familiar with the proper care and handling of animals, you can make injuries worse or even end up injured yourself.


On this day we received a call about a Raccoon that was tangled in some garden netting, we attend rescues like this dozens of times a year. We were able to free the Raccoon and give it an examination on the scene, no injuries had been found and we released it on the spot.
