UPDATE:

Baby chipmunks are eating on their own but still need formula to help their bones develop. Healthy Blocks from HenrysPets.com are soaked in their formula so they get the nutrition they need.

This is so very important!!! Please read this in full… it could very well save a baby squirrel’s life!

THE REAL REASON WILDLIFE REHABBERS ASK YOU NOT TO FEED THAT BABY…

It’s not because we want to hog all the fun for ourselves, I promise. It’s because wild orphans typically aren’t healthy enough to digest food when they are found. Many are hypothermic. The body can’t even handle water when its temperature is too low. All energy is going to crucial body functions in that state. If the body has to divert energy to digesting, it will likely be fatal.

Many are very dehydrated. Animals can’t digest properly when they are dehydrated. The body pulls water into the intestines to aid with digestion. If there isn’t any water to pull from, this could cause a domino affect of problems.

All wild baby animals require a specific diet and that diet generally isn’t available in local stores. Feeding the wrong formula could cause an upset stomach or worse. All baby animals need specific amounts of formula calculated by their body weight. The percentage differs depending on the species. Not every animal can drink from a bottle. The correct instrument must be used to prevent aspiration and over feeding.

Bring me a thin, dehydrated, hypothermic animal and I can probably save it. Feed that same animal before you bring it to me…there’s likely nothing I can do to bring it back.

So please, don’t feed any wild orphans that you have found this baby season. Keeping them warm is a huge help until you find a licensed wildlife rehabilitator.

Please spread the word to prevent unnecessary suffering this baby season. Thank you 🙏
