To be fair, this one does seem like it would require something more advanced than coaxing and a towel.

I once had to help with a horse which managed to get a front hoof trapped in a piece of farm machinery, a harrow if memory serves, and the fire brigade was called without any hesitation.

The RSPCA, dedicated souls that they are, wouldn't have been able to help and would probably have taken a lot longer to arrive.

Monkey in a chimney? Start a fire.
