Weekly Newsletter #2
This otherwise healthy little skunk got a drink lid stuck around her neck Luckily she could still eat and drink but there was the possibility she could get caught on something and choke or it would get tighter as she grew
She was caught in a Havaheart trap and on site the plastic ring was removed
She got a quick exam and a rabies vaccine and was sent on her way
Weekly Newsletter #1
Ronald, as he was called for the first few weeks, came in after being hit by a car. He had a head injury and is still not able to be released. HE also came in pregnant!! A little porcupette was soon born! So Ronald is now Ronalda! Since the birth of her baby she’s taken in 3 other babies as her own and is a wonderful mama to them.
Ronald was quite a mess when he was brought in. He had burrs, leaves and berries stuck to his quills. He cleaned himself up quite a bit the first night.
Porcupettes are the cutest little creatures!

I found injured/abandoned wildlife! What do I do?
As a general rule, you should always watch wild animals from a distance and never feed or touch them. If you come across wildlife you think might be orphaned, sick, or injured, here’s what you can do:
If you encounter wildlife anywhere in the Maine outdoors, remember this motto: If you care, leave them there. Wild animals and birds do not make good pets, and it’s against the law to possess them without the proper state and federal permits.
Picking up young wildlife might seem like the right thing to do but in most cases wildlife has a much better chance at survival when not disrupted by humans. Direct contact with wildlife can also expose you (or your family and pets) to a variety of diseases, and it can lead to an animal being euthanized in order to test for rabies.
