Mississippi Wildlife Center Trains Orphaned Raccoon Kits for Release

In Pass Christian, Mississippi, a wildlife center trains orphaned raccoon kits to survive in the wild. Using hands-on methods, staff teach skills like foraging, swimming, and avoiding dangers. After about six months of training, the young raccoons are released into forests, improving their chances of thriving. The center's efforts began after a woman found a baby raccoon on her ship seven years ago.
