COMM: They may look cute, but these tiny raccoons
have just had a lucky escape.
The kits were accidentally trapped in a chimney
after it had been capped, but after the homeowner heard the raccoons cries, a rescue was soon
underway.
Carers from the Humane Wildlife Services in
the US arrived to nurse the babies.
Lori: We're trying to get them a little more
hydrated because we don't know how many nights they've been without their mother. They probably
haven't nursed for well over 72 hours.
COMM: And after three days of care and attention,
they were placed in a reunion box, ready for mum to collect her young.
