Wild Baby Squirrel Lost Her Mom 

A baby squirrel does that to me, he's going into the house, wife likes it or not.

Around 25 or 30 years ago my son came running in the house yelling "dad, come quick!". When I went outside to see what was wrong there were two baby squirrels lying under a tree that were apparently joined at the tail bone from birth. One was dead and the other was trying to drag it with him. My first thought was to euthanize the live one to stop the suffering, but my son said "please, dad, don't". In the meantime the mother came down from the tree and ran up to me chattering. Wasn't sure what to do so I told my son to go in house and get a bottle of peroxide while I got my twig clippers from the garage. There was no way I could save the tail for the live one (it wasn't flicking around so I figured the nerves, muscles and bone were attached to the dead one), so l held him pressed to the ground and snipped off the tail while my son poured the peroxide on the area cut. All the while the mother was still at my side chattering. The baby let out a yelp when the mother moved in and the two took off running. I didn't think the baby would survive but it was all I could do. Latter that summer I was sitting on my patio enjoying a beer when I noticed a grown squirrel running on top of our fence, no tail, with his butt swinging back and forth for balance. That was a good day. (lol)

“Where’s your mom?” Like he’s a toddler wandering Walmart 😂😂😂😭

That dude is a legit disney princess. Animals trust him.

Cute little guy...his legs are so ripped... must spend a lot of time at the gym

Imagine you are driving by and you see a bunch of adults siting in the ground with nuts on the floor

3 grown men playing with a baby squirrel That's cute!😍😍

Girlfriend: “Hes probably cheating on me right now “ Me and the boys: “Yo check out this squirrel my guy, lets feed it”

Im worried did his mom die? 😥 He's definitely seeking comfort and company more than food. He needed a warm safe place

I came to read the comments of squirrel experts.

Poor little baby walking to every person say "GOT MILK"

Nobody: Men: *hanging out with a squirrel*

Not a red squirrel. Baby fox squirrel, give it milk. It's starving.

"I have nipples, Greg."

HE NEED SOME MILK!

I love the fact that these are men with a gentle heart and kindness towards animals. ... look for this qualities ladies...😉

Mean while in the trees the birds flock and are eyeballing the nut buffet in the driveway

Squirrel Mom: Go across the street and pick up some food from the kind man for you and your brothers and sister Baby Squirrel: Yes ma’am Baby Squirrel: Wait why did I come here again?

KYLE WHERE THE CASHEWS AT

Squirrels who are so free from fear to humans are deeply asking for help because they are lost and can not find home. You should the her/him and take care for it. Because it´s really needing special help. Call a animal sanctuary or a special institution for Squirrels. When you´re hiking and a squirrel just climbs up your leg, like this little one does, they are really in danger. And they take all their encourage together and ask humans for help. In the mountains, where I am from, this happens sometimes. When a storm or heavily rain causes that the baby´s get trown out of the nest. yes she/he is homeless and don´t know how to react because don´t know how to eat food, so it´s a pretty young animal and need to take to the vet and then to a special animal sanctuary. It´s showing some fear because of unknown noises and is staying close to the boy with the caro shirt. He feels comfortable with you and you should take him and give him strokes and love, because he needs you. This little one has no experience with the dangerous world we live in. So they just get as near as they can to you for getting love and care. :) So please help those little souls!

You fucked with the squirrels, Morty!

Just FYI for people who might watch this video... Squirrels don't carry rabies. Neither do opossums. Skunks and raccoons do. And baby squirrels won't bite hard enough to break the skin. It could hurt, but not life-threatening to you. In some regions, squirrels can carry Bubonic Plague and Typhus. Both are very old diseases and can be treated with anti-biotics. That's the worst they can give you. His trembling back legs show that he might have been dehydrated and/or low on calcium. Mama may have been killed and he went out looking for food. Always rehydrate a baby squirrel with Pedialyte, and then get them warm. Try to find mama if you can. If not, then warmth, hydrate, call a rehab facility. Some states have strict laws. Some states pretend to have strict laws but no money or staff to implement the laws. And a few states, you can keep the squirrel no problem. But it is a commitment...like having a Cockatoo. They need a very large cage. Daily free roaming for hours. Can be destructive and moody and may bond to only one or two people.

i have nipples greg -most 2019 quote

when a baby squirrel runs to you it seeks help, mom is probably dead or gone

Ah, the trust of the innocent. I used to live in the country and one winter night this baby mouse came staggering up to me while I was in bed. She was so unsteady and looked malnourished. I put my hand to the floor thinking that would scare her away. Instead she came to me. So, what could I do. I built a little place for her to live in an old blueberry container (I named her Blueberry) and basically fed her, etc, until her strength returned and the weather got better. I let her go. She didn't seem eager to leave at first but did eventually get curious enough to do so. Sometimes they get desperate enough to take a chance.

You are supposed to give him milk, for baby puppies or cats.

I love the black on it's head. It looks like it's wearing a cap. It's so cute!

Is it just me or does that squirrel have giant legs🤔

Meanwhile that little squirrel: mom lied to me, she told not to make friends with humans, but they are nice after all! 😂

Momma must've abandoned it... it's way too friendly with people, I hope you kept it or called a wildlife rehabber, so the could get it independent to release...

Such a touching story about the quail, then the man was all like, "Yeah, the cat ate it." 😰😨😱

Why isn’t he running away like the rest of the squirrels

*"HE NEED SOME MILK!"*

We NEED AN UPDATE ON THE SQUIRREL !!

“That baby is just a baby.” I love this man.

Poor little guy he was coming up to you looking for food as something has happened to mom and he is now all alone. He would need to drink Esbilac puppy formula with Probiotics, feed 5-7% of his body weight every 5 hours..... later you can add in a good quality squirrel block, then vegetables, fruits and nuts.

I want milk you humans!😉😆😄

He probably wanted mom's milk.

Baby squirrel seek help they jump on people, and climb out of the legs. This is a help call.

They dont Play... It's search for help.... Every squirell who comes to humans lost his mother and need help for feeding and growing up.

this squirrel is like “i like it here i think i’ll stay”

This kind of behavior has nothing to do with them wanting to play. This is literally begging for food/company/safety. If their homes get destroyed or their territory was took over by another squirrelly, squirrels tend to follow humans hoping to be rescued or get food.

That's a cute ass dog

When I was a tween I found a young squirrel at the foot of a tree and it seemed his mother abandoned him, ended up convincing my momma let me adopt him, we had him for about a year I named him Bender and he was awesome so friendly and fun. He pooped CONSTANTLY but they are just little poop circles that are easy to clean. We released him into the wild at a park and I never seen him again :(

why can’t everyone be like these people?

I wish you would've brought him home. I would have taken care of him. I believe he was so young that he was still fed milk. So cute!

the guy talking about his experiences with different animals sounds so passionate and proud 🤣

Something about this seems kinda off I mean an adult male leading a baby squirrel to his car with the promise of nuts.

Not only did I watch a cute baby squirrel but I also learned about pro biotics at Costco

This is the most exciting moment in their lives

1% warm milk from an eye dropper. Solid food, it will choke on.

Poor baby must've lost his mama T_T absolutely adorable little dude.

I'm sitting here screaming at the video, "it's too young to eat that, it needs its mom"!!! ....

Dude ill cashew later

What happened to the poor little guy? He is not eating because he still on mother's milk. Did you take him home??? Please Please Please let us know. Please????.

Too cute!!!! Are these awesome guys single??? Damm!!!!! They r soooooo awesome!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

please tell me someone took it home - it will never survive on it's own

it's a Fox Squirrel, it just wants some type of fruit or any nuts, preferably peanuts ... They love peanuts and it was just curious that's all, my son and I in SW Florida will sit outside outback by the trees and the little ones come and enjoy peanuts and leave when they are done.

I love kind people. ❤️

No squirrels play with me, they all run away :(

the leg looks different with squrrel at my place, they look like kangaroo

"That babys just a baby"

Usualy its an act of hopelessnes from a squirrelbaby to come close....that means he is probably lost a while and looking for any help.

1:00 “come here baby” “ that baby is just a baby” I don’t know why that was funny to me

Girls, THIS is the kind of man you want 😍

He's lost his mom. Now you're his mom. Can't leave him outside.

poor little guy, needs to be looked after by wild life experts, hes walking funny.

I guess his mom ain’t teach him humans are or were deadly killing machines. Imagine.

"that baby is just a baby...."

“This babies just a baby” “The mother came, she had 6 breast on her” *man taps ground with his raptor claw*

I wonder what happened to the poor lost squirrel 😪

He needs help

Such a cute little creature! I get the impression the little guy is looking for some help. I wonder what became of him later. I wonder if he is still alive...

Concerned guy: "he couldn't have swine flu or anything could he?" Reassuring guy: "No, the only thing he could have is Rabies" lol

Nice video enjoyed listening to your conversations! Cute little thing. So what happened to him did he find his mother !??

When I was a kid there was a neighborhood squirrel, some of us used to feed it. It would actually crawl up on my dad's lap and take nuts from him, and I petted it a few times. Another neighbor used to feed him too. One day he knocked on the neighbor's door, she wound up letting him in (not realizing it was the squirrel) and it went into the kitchen and began looking for nuts! She gently chased him out with a broom. Pretty funny!

Squirrel be like "guess what I don't want from you?" Deez nuts ha goteem

based on my rick and morty's knowledge, this squirrel is trying to dominate the world

I'm sorry but that squirrel has some kangaroo legs 😂😂😂😂

its beautiful that wild animal still can seek comfort in humans when in need.

4 years later: RU-vid: let's put this on recommended this

*I thought that was a chicken*

Girlfriends: He must be cheating on me with another woman right now The Boys:

Meanwhile momma squirrel is asking her husband " Have u seen our son?"

the baby squirrel knew that hes safe. look at him! so adorable baby~

It looks like it wants to snuggle up to you , it feels safe with you! Dad!

who else click on this vid after watching Thirsty Squirrel Grabs Some Water at the Grand Canyon

Even if the little baby didnt survive or so on. The men where so kind to it and it probably feelt safe there, Thanks for all that you did for it.

Your cashews cant have salt on them

Searching desperately for part 2 of this video. Yes..no? What did you all do for baby "big feet?" (Yes I named him already.) I know you said you don't have any updates, but you have a lot of us sitting on the edge of our seats.

dear little thing

"The only thing he could have would be rabies" Squirrels are one of the few mammals humans don't have to worry about carrying rabies... Them having it is exceptionally rare, no human in the United States has ever died after being bitten by a Squirrel. Rabies very rarely infect smaller mammals like squirrels, moles, mice, etc. :) Rabies are the least of your worries. :)

The guys should have brought it to the vet immediately. The squirrel is too young to eat food and needs nourish formula. Who knows how long it was without milk. Wild animals don't come this close. So the little guy must be very hungry and weak and in search for a mother figure. I know it's cute and the guys were sweet with the little baby squirrel but they should have really taken it to the vet.

If a baby squirrel is on the ground and tries its hardest to follow or climb on you, then its the hunger it has. They sometimes fall from the nest and don't know what to do, often just laying there and waiting for the mother.. this one looks like its realy hungry, being this close to you, I hope you could help this little guy with some milk! Ah and all this "Don't touch a baby animal, because the mother won't take it anymore" is bs, just remember "As long as it has fur it is ok to touch"!

Good for u young man. Showing kindness is a very good quality

He might be drunk on fermented fruit especially the way he or she is wandering erratically and so friendly

Poor little guy! Probably far away from his mother or unfortunately his mother died. Hope he made it

"I have nipples.." dude i was mod 'aw' and you gut punched me- well done sir.

All I could think while I watched this is, “I want to pet him. I really, really want to pet him!”
