A miracle happened in our community thanks to good, caring folks spending days and enormous effort helping rescue a baby racoon whose paw was caught and mangled in contraption of cruelty. She is not the first raccoon in our area that has suffered horrific torture because of specific residents abusing and attacking raccoons and other wildlife. Please do not use those Trex black traps or anything else that you have not researched. Huge thanks to all including Tammy Trefry, animal rescue expert and savior for leading the rescue. Please contact 604-399-8502 Coastal Wildlife Rescue for information and to report any wildlife in need of help. Tammy and Jeff are beyond amazing.
