Baby season starts this week. You're going to find baby animals in your yard. Most of them don't need your help.

Here's the decision for each one.

A baby rabbit alone in a grass nest — the mother visits once or twice a day for a few minutes, at dawn or dusk. She stays away on purpose because her scent attracts predators. The babies are not abandoned. Lay two thin sticks in an X over the nest and check in twelve hours. Sticks disturbed means mom visited.

A fawn lying alone in tall grass — the mother left it there deliberately. Fawns have almost no scent for the first week and predators can't find them. A fawn lying still with its ears up is hiding, not hurt. The mother returns several times a day to nurse. Contact a rehabilitator only if the fawn is walking in circles, visibly injured, or vocalizing continuously for many hours.

A baby bird on the ground — if it's feathered, hopping, eyes open, and roughly tennis-ball sized, it's a fledgling. Leave it. The parents are nearby and feeding it. If it's naked with eyes closed, it's a nestling that fell from the nest — put it back. The myth that parents reject a baby touched by humans is false. If it's visibly injured, contact a rehabilitator.

A baby squirrel that approaches you needs help — healthy babies don't approach humans. One sitting in a tree or on a roof is fine.

A baby opossum longer than about seven inches nose to rump is independent and on schedule. Smaller than that and alone, it may have fallen off the mother's back — contact a rehabilitator.

A baby turtle is independent from the moment it hatches. It never meets its mother. There is no such thing as an abandoned baby turtle.

🌿 The universal rule:

- Before touching any baby animal, call a wildlife rehabilitator. Describe what you see. They'll tell you what to do
- Most baby animals look abandoned because being alone is their survival strategy
- Wait and watch from a distance for a couple of hours before intervening — in most cases the parent returns on a schedule you can't see
- If a cat is near a fledgling, move the bird under a dense shrub within thirty feet. The parents find it by sound

The instinct to help is good. The information to help correctly is what makes the difference 🌿

Hi friends! 👋 We’re finally wrapping up the big project that’s been holding us back from opening. You’ve probably noticed all the hustle and bustle around the building lately, and we can’t thank you enough for your patience and excitement during this long process.

We know the wait has been tough, but the finish line is in sight—we’re down to the final touches! While we don’t have an official opening date just yet, we promise it won’t be much longer.

Our family has poured so much heart and hard work into this space, and we cannot wait to open the doors, meet you all, and share what we’ve been working on. Thank you for cheering us on—we’re almost there! ❤️
