A paramedic officer in Peel region suited up in protective gear on Sunday morning — not for an outbreak situation — but for a rescue mission to save a skunk with a cup stuck on its head.
A skunk with its head stuck in a jar. A skunk that’s probably already freaking out. A skunk that’s primed to spray anything it perceives as an attacker — including the person trying to help.
Donning a hazmat suit is simply the smart thing to do.

It’s better than the usual avalanche of “Bad Things Are Happening, Be Afraid” news. (And waaaay better than the Angry Cheeto…)
