Raccoon Rescue from the Ocean
A couple, Will DeLeo and Elizabeth Heffron, were taking a sunrise walk along the shore of the Atlantic Ocean in South Carolina when they spotted a raccoon struggling to swim.
They decided to help the exhausted animal after watching it try to find an exit from the water without success.
A video posted to Instagram shows DeLeo bringing a nearby traffic cone to the ledge and lowering it into the water, allowing the raccoon to grab hold.
After the raccoon slipped off the cone multiple times, DeLeo was finally able to lift it back onto dry land.
- The raccoon took a moment to rest on the ledge.
- It then ran away from the scene.
