So, I have a question on this, because I am sure that most haven't.
Have any of you adopted a wild animal before? Bleh, a couple days ago [Friday I believe] a baby fox squirrel, yes it was blind, fell out of my tree and I decided to pick it up with gloves and put it in a box. Now, someone noted to me that it's mother does not come back after a human hand touches it, so I "adopted it". I have fed it what it said that I should feed it, online, and it, in the little time that I have "adopted" it, has grown fast, and has opened its eyes and can see. The only thing I will have a problem with is letting it go when it gets older :sigh:. |

I feel bad for the baby animal.

QUOTE(JAMx33 @ May 5 2005, 5:16 PM) Just to tell you sir, rabies is carried mainly through bats, raccoons, possums, other wild, larger omnivorous animals. Hm.... but yes, there is a VERY VERY low chance that you get rabies from squirrels, as the rehibilitator told me.... and she even picked up my squirrel with her bare hands while i was careful that it wouldn't scratch me. I hope he's doing okay :/. |
