The Houston's SPCA is caring for orphaned baby squirrels that have fallen from trees. They also have advice for you if you come across them.
HOUSTON — Squirrels belong in trees, but sometimes life takes a turn. manager Brooke Gainey said."When they get orphaned, people bring them into us. We raise them up and then we release them."
"The first thing we recommend is to check and see if the baby looks like he's injured," she said."If there's any open wounds or if there's flies swarming around, something like that, that baby needs to be brought in immediately. If there doesn't look like there's anything wrong, you can actually try to reunite the squirrel with its mom.
