It was raining heavily when WES received an emergency call about two juvenile raccoons stuck in a storm drain near Landmark Elementary School in Watsonville, California.
WES' Duane Titus responded immediately.
On scene he found two cubs huddled together in a corner of the drain, water all around them.
He pried open the drain cover and hauled the two youngsters to safety. One of them shot up a nearby redwood, where Duane thought he'd heard the mother. The other one, a bit more timid, scurried into shrubs below the tree.

Kudos to whoever called WES about the youngsters. Very nice rescue, Duane!
Thank goodness they are back with mom. Grateful for Duane for coming out on a rainy night.
Nice blocking of the one that tried to jump back in!
Excellent work; it's wonderful that there are people like you willing to go out and help animals in need. Thank you.
