UPI – Singaporean animal rescuers were called to an apartment building after a civet climbed to the 14th floor and became trapped on a balcony.
The Animal Concerns Research and Education Society (ACRES) confirmed that their team responded to the residential building following reports of a wild animal stranded on a 14th-storey balcony.
They arrived to find the animal was a civet, an animal related to weasels and mongooses.
“The team was concerned about potential fall risk and had to use items they could find to block such an incident from happening,” ACRES said on social media.
The civet slipped past the rescuers and bolted into the residence, but was eventually caught and returned to the wild, the rescue team said.
