Benjiro notices the alignment of the fur quite quickly being down in the thick of it literally. A moment or two thinking it over, he gathers the sense of orientation to the above world.

Keeping movement slow and tentative, he rises to stand on two feet. He shines his light towards where he assumes the tail to be and then the opposite way to try to judge which direction will take him on a shorter walk to begin.

Then, before moving either way, he turns his flashlight directly towards the ceiling of the burrow.
