Mom raccoon and babies saved New England Wildlife Center.flv

For the New England Wildlife Center,the business of mending broken wings and nursing orphaned songbird hatchlings is all in a day's work. Insided the exam rooms at their environementally designed hospital, all manner of wild things are healed with the intention of returning them back to their homes as quickly as possible. The center is a haven for animals who have absolutely no where else to go, and because of the specialized veterinary care provided here, tens of thousands have gone on to see the sun again.

Last week, while most of us were enjoying our morning coffee, the team got to work on the delicate rescue of a mother raccoon who had become wedged in a pipe when trying to escape from the people who were panicking upon finding her. As you'll see in this video, both mama and her babies are doing just fine and are once again living as a family at the forest's edge where they belong.

As founder of the Harmony Fund I am priveleged to witness these kinds of rescues each and every day. We're supporting the New England Wildlife Center and other extraordinary rescue squads around the world.

Ok i dont understand why we need to kill it!

Just like with others i know they dug up our home but we built our homes on there homes we have no right killing them!

And we wonder why the worlds in such bad shape!

Human kind is ruthless and cruel

@KyleMeRichards Ummm, not quite what I meant, but okay.

If it were me, I'd have trapped them all, taken them on a long drive into the wilderness, and let them all go.

@threeby8887 Yes indeed, if that raccoon was not captured in this caring persons home than it would have met a much worse fate. The rescuers are the heros!!! So you are right "threeby", this animal getting into somones house saved its life, and its babies.

I thank you Walpole animal control officer and thank you Dr. Mertz

God Bless
