Truro animal rescue

A young and starving bobcat that was rescued from a field in west end Truro is being cared for at the Shubenacadie Wildlife Park.

The bobcat, about a year old; was rescued after wildlife officers were called about an animal in distress that was lying in the field on West Prince Street.
