This story comes from Jesse & Bonnie Beckman, friends of animals, not volunteers:

On July 20, 2006 my wife went out on the front porch, A few moments later she came in and insisted I check out a crazy noise coming from the well house. By the time I got dressed and got out there our neighbor across the street was arriving with a flashlight. Lo & behold there on the corner of the well house was a raccoon with a spaghetti can stuck on it's head. My wife, Bonnie brought out my camera and I took a couple of shots of the poor animal because I did not think anyone would believe that this could happen. I was a little scared to try and get the can off of the little one's head.

At this point I called the St. Johns Sheriff's Office, and was referred to
Fire and Rescue. Fire and Rescue referred me to St. Johns Wildlife Care on
County Road 208. It being late in the evening and getting close to my bed
time I was getting worried that the little guy might not make it through the
night, so I took the chance that even though it was getting late that I
would try to call St. Johns Wildlife and hoped that someone would answer the telephone.

A very nice lady by the name of Karen Inman answered and I explained my situation! Karen convinced me to try and get the can off of the little guy's head. I told her I would call back either way. I grabbed a towel and with it held the poor thing behind the head and with three very straining twist and pulls the little guy was free. I am sorry I did not get any pictures without the can, but he was too fast and did not stick around and pose for the camera again. Karen I just wanted to thank you for all of your help and to let you know that it was an experience  I will not soon forget. Your Friends of Animals, Jesse & Bonnie Beckman
