Water-logged Wyoming Badger Rescued By Kayaker

FONTENELLE, Wyo. (CBS4) – A badger struggling to swim across a Wyoming lake Wednesday hitched a ride to shore aboard a woman’s kayak.
Kat McConnell, a Bureau of Land Management employee, was paddling across Fontenelle Reservoir when she encountered the animal, according to a BLM-Wyoming Facebook post.

“It was way out in the middle of the lake, panting and struggling to make it across,” McConnell is quoted in the post.
