It’s not about us! It’s about giving these little guys the best chance at survival. Feeding found wild orphans can actually do more harm than good. Here’s why:
Hypothermia: They’re often too cold to digest anything, even water. Their little bodies need all their energy just to survive.
Dehydration: Dehydration makes digestion super tough and can cause serious problems.
Specialized Diets: Think baby formula, but way more specific. The wrong food can be fatal.
Correct Dosage: We have to calculate the exact amount based on their weight and species. It’s a science!
Proper Feeding Techniques: Not all babies can even drink from a bottle! We use special tools to prevent them from choking.
A warm, unfed animal has a much higher chance of survival.
Keep them warm: This is the most important thing!
Do NOT feed them: Resist the urge, it’s for their own good.
Contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator ASAP: You’ll be giving them the best chance at life!
