Fly strike

This little one was found out in the day, the finder did the right thing by calling for advice then bringing it into us.

Not only suffering being covered in fly eggs (thankfully not hatched) she was also dehydrated & cold.

Removal of the eggs began and underneath was a small cut (that's all it takes), fluids were given then she was placed in our ICU.

When she's more stable, further tests will be run.

Please keep a look out for hedgehogs out in the day, they are not sunbathing, there will be something wrong.

Roe fawns 🦌

When one became two, then two became three.

As you have previously seen on our posts, Bel was delivered by emergency C-section after her mum had to be put to sleep due to her injuries.

Steve:
He arrived with us via Sian & Tim West Sussex Wildlife Protection & Nathan Horsham wildlife rescue who collected from them so they could attend another rescue.
His mum had been chased by a dog and after some hours had not returned, with the extremely bad weather on the day he was found it was decided best to lift him, he is also being treated for an injury to his eye.

Aurora:
This little one (she is so dinky) again, no return from a mother.
The finder observed her for over 8 hours, and she was so cold it was decided she needed to come in.

Please be aware, fawns are left for a number of hours whilst their mothers are feeding.

Mother deer hide their babies in the undergrowth, but tend to still have an eye on them.
DO NOT pick up a fawn unless it is in danger, please always call for ADVICE.

Without people like you kindly donating towards our cause, we really wouldn't be able to help all the wildlife that comes through our doors.
