FRIDAY HARBOR, Wash. — A wildlife rehabilitation center rescued two orphaned raccoon kits after they were found alone on Orcas Island.
The young female raccoons were reportedly found next to a downed tree with no sign of their parents. A good Samaritan rescued them and brought them to the Wolf Hollow Wildlife Rehabilitation Center.
According to the rehab center, “Expert wildlife rehabilitators have been working around the clock to provide specialized medical care, diet, and enrichment to ensure these two continue to hit their growth milestones.”
The two kits are currently 7 weeks old and will spend time recovering and learning in Wolf Hollow’s raccoon nursery before being released back into the wild.
Wolf Hollow is a wildlife rehabilitation center serving San Juan, Skagit, and Island counties. If you find an injured or orphaned animal in any of these areas, you can call the rehab center directly at 360-378-5000.
