Last month, Barnstable Animal Control in Massachusetts came upon a rather cartoonish situation: a raccoon with his head stuck in a peanut butter jar.
Workers at the New England Wildlife Center had several plans ready to free the raccoon from the peanut butter jar.

Hopefully the peanut butter snack was worth it.”Thankfully, the raccoon didn’t sustain any injuries from the jar.
