Animal babies are being born, and some will need our help. There are times when the baby mothers are killed, leaving the babies who are usually scared, and hungry. If you run across any wild life babies, please don't give them milk from the store, it will kill them. The first thing to do is to give them sugar water,pedialite, or gaterade if you have it. Then go to the vet and get powder milk replacer for puppies or kittens. The vet can give you small syringes to feed the babies with. The one thing I also learned, if they feed to fast and liquid bubbled at nose, turn the baby upside down and wipe the liquid away from the air way, or the liquid will go into thier lungs. Read everything you can find on the internet. Baby squrrels will need a bone to chew on to keep the teeth from growing to long, most babies will suck on their toes, and most love raw veggies. So there is much to know in order to save them and keep them healthy. Contact the animal rescue folks in your area if you have one, and they will take them and care for them for you. One more thing, baby squrrels I found will run to you for help, so don't be afraid to pick them up, if you are scared then pick them up with a rag, shirt tail, something that will ease your fear, because they mean no harm, they just want to be saved. We have litterly had babies run to us and climb our pants legs. Good luck, post pictures, we would love to see them.
