Info from Licensor: "We had seen this raccoon around, it was part of a family of 5. It had the icee lid on for a while, over a week. We ordered wildlife gloves bated them with cat food and my mom, and a neighbor, and I managed to catch it. It was timider than the others so it took a while to catch. The heavy breathing is me, I literally ran to get the scissors. It was an icee lid from a drink cup. The raccoon came by later with the fam and seemed ok. It was a little stunted compared to its siblings.'
