Baby Rabbits Rescued In Conshohocken

CONSHOHOCKEN, PA — If you're a tiny animal and you get lost or find yourself somewhere you're not supposed to be, Conshohocken is a good place to do it.

Days after rescuing a palm-sized kitten from a storm drain, Conshohocken police officers responded to a call of a nest of baby rabbits that appeared to have been left alone.

The mother had not returned to the babies for more than 24 hours, and without her protection, they stood little chance.

Conshohocken police "carefully gathered them" from their nest and took them to the renowned Schuylkill Wildlife Center.

At the center that specializes in wounded and abandoned wildlife, police said, the bunnies will "receive the specialized care they need to survive and grow."

Police thanked both the staff at the Schuylkill Wildlife Center and the concerned resident who notified police about the issue.
