Wildlife Resources Commission Provides Tips on “Orphaned” Young Squirrels


August is the time when biologists with the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission are seeing an influx of reports from concerned citizens who have found a grounded young squirrel and want to know how to help.


RALEIGH, N.C. (July 23, 2020) – The second half of summer comes with a few typical themes: [I][B]barbeques[/B] [sic] [/I]with family, the sound of lawnmowers, outdoor walks and young squirrels falling out of trees.

Yes, that’s right. This is the time of year that squirrels such as the common gray squirrel are raising their second brood of the year. Summer storms and tree-cutting activity, along with other similar events, can lead to young squirrels, and sometimes the whole leafy nest, falling out of their high tree perches. As a result, biologists with the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission see an influx of reports from concerned citizens who have found a grounded young squirrel and want to know how to help.

[B]“It's important to understand that possession of live, native wildlife is illegal in North Carolina, except particular circumstances, and this usually requires a license or permit,” Owens said. “Despite a person’s best intentions, a wild animal is best left where it was found, or in the hands of a licensed wildlife rehabilitator.”

This is horrible.

Not only are you too dumb, incompetent and free-wheeling to handle things without a licensed expert and a state-issued permit, but you're also gullible enough to think there is such a thing as "a barbeque."


The times they are a-changin' .... :re:


I'm glad I'll be dead soon ...
