We the undersigned request Govern Bill Haslam issue a pardon for Mark "Coonrippy" Brown, and return into his custody the three month old raccoon, Rebekah,now being held at Waldens Puddle. He has been rasing Rebekah in his home for the past two months. It is in the best interest of the animal to be in her home with this family who has diligently and with great expertise nurtured, loved and kept safe. Young Rebekah isn't the first raccoon Coonrippy has save and he is skilled in caring for animals.
His home sits in a large wooded area and he has 13 acres of this property. It would be in the best interests of the raccoon to be returned to the only home she has know. She has already suffered the loss of her mother, who was killed by students in one of your schools under the suggestion of the teacher.
Mark "Coonrippy" Brown was called as asked if he would take the infant raccoon Rebekah and save her life. Coonrippy retrieved the infant animal and nurtured her for two months.
This raccoon has formed a bond with the family and to keep her at Waldens Puddle is cruel. Please return Rebecca to this family, it is crucial she continues to have the companionship of those who have loved and cared for her.We hope you will seriously consider our request and let Rebekah return to the Mark "Coonrippy" Brown home and family.
