Volunteer Rescuers from East Sussex Wildlife Rescue and Ambulance Service (WRAS), were called out on the morning of 1 February after a badger became trapped in the bottom of a disused swimming pool.
This badger along with a second were originally spotted by the owners on Thursday, they placed a ladder and planks into the pool so the badger could attempt to climb out. Overnight one of the badgers managed to escape but one stayed behind, so WRAS was called to help the stranded badger.
A badger was left confused and scared after falling into an empty swimming pool at a farm near Hailsham today (28th April). Rescuers from East Sussex Wildlife Rescue and Ambulance Service (WRAS) attended on site to find the badger had made itself at home in some vegetation at the corner of the empty swimming pool.
A badger has been rescued from a swimming pool in Denehurst Gardens, Hastings on Saturday 13th February. Volunteer Michael Lamb from East Sussex Wildlife Rescue and Ambulance Service (WRAS) attended on site within 30 minutes and was able to catch the badger using a dog grasper. Luckily the swimming pool was empty but the owners of the property had been on holiday so it was unclear how long the badger may have been in the pool for.
