Adorable animal rescued from wheelie bin

The two-week-old pine marten was brought from Powys to the Vale Wildlife Hospital in Evesham. It was discovered alongside two deceased siblings.

Laura Pawley, who's been looking after the mystery animal, tells Elliott Webb how the creature, clocking up at just 105 grams on the scales, is something they haven't seen before in their 42 years of operating.

Discover how the pine marten will stay in their care until the end of the summer, when the team will aim to re-introduce it to its natural habitat in Wales.
