I was able to save one of two baby squirrels

- A bittersweet story about two baby squirrels. I was doing everything I could to give them the best chance to survive. For ten days I had fed them day and night, every two hours. Would they make it?
I had been raising my squirrel friend Aka, who I wanted to have a Squirrel friend. But he had been a lot older when I got him. During the process I kept close contact with the squirrel rescue centre. I kept close contact with my squirrel owner friend whom has been hand raising weak baby squirrels for decades.
They were getting a very special and precise mixture of specially prepared milk to raise squirrels. I even gave the right bacteria to get their digestion working.
I would like to give a big thanks to Marysia for all her knowledge and support and for the many baby squirrels she has saved.
I love reading your comments.

Jace Oakwoods WHY YOU MAKE ME CRY MAN
It's still too early to hear that and not cry
"When I was born, I saw an angel. He visited me everyday and when it was time to sleep, he said that I would wake up in a garden full of flowers and that we would be together again. "
That's so nice
I just got myself under control again but you had to go and write the sweetest thing ever and set me off crying again.

"A little squirrel won't make it. I'm so sorry."
Heroes aren't always omnipotent.
I'm a 51 year old man. Bawling my eyes out at the poor little squirrels. I didn't think my day would end this way.
That's a rare species. Not the squirrel, but the human.
damn, he really is rare
Humans*
So beautifully said
@@alfiewylie they told about that particular human who is saving animals
She got us in the first half not gonna lie
he let him feel the sun, he cared for him, HE BURIED HIM IN FLOWER PETALS. you are an angel.
Yes very sad
megan rodger you are so right
I know
Ik...bro i cant even breath rn im gasping
I was crying for at least half an hour it's jest so depressing😭😭😭😭😭
Same story I had with a baby kitten, less than two weeks old. I was rushing to the dentist and they threw it away at the middle of the street from a car.
Diarrhea, growing but not fast enough, it's eyes just opened and I found it dead at the next morning. And buried it.
You just can't save all of them. But the important thing is it didn't died alone at cold, and someone took care about it till the last minute.
Huge respect!🙏🏻
Just piggybacking on this comment so I can share some tips. A long time ago, a very clever vet told me: diarrhea doesn't kill, dehydration does. I have a lot of experience raising puppies, and it's so so important to get any baby animal enough fluids if they are having diarrhea. The best and fastest way to do this is to administer sub-q fluids - they turn around very quickly when you do this. The second best way is to feed them oral rehydration liquids, like Pedialyte. The easiest way to get this into a baby animal is to tube feed it to them, every few hours, until they stop having diarrhea. The final thing is that most babies who have diarrhea either have it because they have an infection and need antibiotics, or have a high worm load and need to be dewormed. A vet can administer injectable antibiotics or prescribe liquid antibiotics so it's easier to feed. Following this protocol, I have never lost a puppy due to diarrhea in over 10 years. It's more important to get a baby animal hydrated than to get it eating. Get it hydrated first, then deal with the feeding.
This man got to be a mother, in a way, without actually being a mother, very impressive.
"I wanted him to feel the warmth of the sun at least once"
Ohhh my heart...
I kinda cried..
I cried a lot.🥺
i kinda cried too

I freaking bawled, that was such a sweet burial too :'(

The fact he can sit there and give them so much love and affection knowing they could die is just beautiful. Theres only rare people like this.
After you placed him onto the daisies, I thought to myself, "Put some of his nest in there with him. Please put some of his nest in." But you covered him with the pink flowers. Then I started crying and thought to myself, "Beautiful. Just beautiful." Such a short life, but so much love. Thank you.
This man is a reminder that there is still hope in humanity

Rip squirrel and me well soon my house will be completely flooded in like 2-3 minutes
Had to stop the video for a few minutes, when this amazing loving, caring and compassionate man said he wanted the little one to at least feel the sunshine once.... I started weeping. Sir your karma is absolutely magnificent, our karma is how we treat other living beings. We all need to be the positive changes we want to see in our world.

Im glad he made a cute little grave for the squirrel for how much he loved and did his best to keep the baby squirrel alive
YES
I tried to resist but the tears came out
How about....

We, my girldfriend and I, concluded: if only the world could be ruled by people like you, it would all be a better place.
I'd rather not have him a ruler for two reasons :
1. We don't know if he's good at ruling.
2. If he ever becomes the ruler of the world he wouldn't have time to save animals and that would be the real tragedy. : (

The Perfectionist
You’re both equally wonderful people
The Perfectionist the video isn’t monetized... and you’re pretty cocky for “the a better hero”
The Perfectionist you are putting yourself above another person because you believe they are doing it just for the money. I do not doubt that you have done good deeds but to complain about someone else’s right or wrong in such a matter, then to claim yourself as a better hero is by definition, cocky.
@The Perfectionist wanting to share the good things you do with the world doesn't mean you do it solely for the money, it doesn't make you any less of a good person. this video isn't even monetized. get your head out of your ass with your superiority complex

While this was hard to watch, I appreciated that you showed us everything. You can't save them all, but it's always worth while to try.

There never not a chance to try if you try hard enough
But I really love the hole consept of being so natural with everything he does

Same here....I can't imagine the feelings this man has when finding his little fella parished in it's cage. I am glad his sister did make it into a really beautiful lady squirrel and met Aka.

@@mylo8818 He said God, he didn't say which God, so I don't see there should be any discrimination here.
My parents were wildlife rehabbers, and worked with everything from corvids to songbirds to fox squirrels. The one constant was that no matter what we did or how well we cared for the rescues, not all the babies would make it, and sometimes a death happened for what appeared to be no good reason. Many species have a large amount of young at once simply because of the mortality rate of the babies. You did your very best with what can be a difficult species. There is honor even when the outcome is not the very best one. Thank you for rescuing.
What a brave and compassionate person you are.
That was the most beautiful burial. The daisies had me sobbing.
I was already fighting tears when he was pulling the blanket and insulation off.
