Firefighters and animal rescue officers had to be called in to save three badgers that had crawled into a sewage tank in Lanark.
The trio were initially spotted by Scottish Water who noticed that they had curled up at the bottom of a 16ft tank.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service was called in by the Scottish SPCA to assist with the mission but the crew was more than happy to help. All three of the badgers were eventually lifted to safety but were suffering from dehydration.
