I figured if I raised my voice, it wouldn't scare the squirrel away. We were visiting a family friend's house when this little squirrel came up to us.
UPDATE OCT 28th, 2020 - Insane! I received a message from the neighbor of the older couple. Somehow, someway, the neighbor saw the video. It turns out that they did call the local wildlife rescue people after all. I don't know anything else beyond that, but after I confirmed the location, she told me how she was talking to the couple later that day or the next day and the rescue people came out. I can't say if they took it or not or if the squirrel turned to a life of crime or went to college, but hey, they tried!

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

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

    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)

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

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

    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!
