Orphaned Yellow-Bellied Marmot
This poor little guy was found wandering on Hwy 97, no mom in sight. By the time he came to us he was thin, dehydrated and cold; also covered in fleas. No sleep tonight, checking on this guy every 2 hours, giving fluids and trying to get him to eat. Good luck little guy! We’re doing our best to save you, keep on fighting!
This little bat was found on the side of a building, just a few inches off the ground. He wasn’t sick or injured, just COLD! When bats get cold they can’t fly, so must “camp out” until they can warm up in the sun. (Or in his case, in a cozy heated box.) Once warmed, he was good to go and on his way to eating thousands of mosquitoes later that night!
We received a call for a “rabbit acting strangely”. The reporting party said it was “not running away, and just too friendly.” When we got there, we realized why…. The color was correct for a native cotton tail rabbit, but the ears were all wrong! This is someone’s domestic lop rabbit, either lost or abandoned. Abscess on neck will be treated then, if we can’t find owner, we’ll place in a great new forever home. Just another day in the live of a rehabber!
Not exactly a wild bunny!
