Meet Rocky the Racoon

Meet Rocky the Racoon, he is a youngin' and was just discovering what life is about when he was caught in a STEEL JAW TRAP in the middle of Westmount! Thankfully he found the help he needed, which did not come from the regular wildlife rescue groups as they had prior commitments tonight. But rather a team of dedicated staff of a veterinary clinic, who take their job outside of the clinic hours (literally). He is resting tonight on I.V fluids, and although he has not broken bones, the foot will probably have to be amputated. Because he was trapped at least a few days, the wound is old and nerve damage extensive.

*** NOTE: We are not a wildlife rescue group, do not claim to be, and do not have the license to be. This is simply a case witnessed by an Eleven Eleven tech at work. This story to spread awareness for animal cruelty.

*** WILD ANIMALS ARE NOT, AND SHOULD NOT BE KEPT AS PETS.
