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!

Lop Rabbit

Not exactly a wild bunny!

Injured River Otter

We found this little girl with so much crud encrusted on her face, her eyes were stuck shut, impeding her hunting.  Clean up revealed many infected wounds, probably from a dog attack.  After clean up and some antibiotics, she was returned to her den on the river bank, one happy otter!
