2020-04-29Screencap from NextDoor (neighborhood message board)
screenshot from a post on NextDoor that indicates quarantined Baton Rouge citizens have been making concerned calls about "orphaned" animals. "An Important Message About Orphaned Wildlife Neighbors, The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries has received many calls from concerned community members about healthy infant and adolescent wildlife that were mistaken as “orphaned.” They want to share with all of us that a majority of wildlife leave their offspring for considerable amounts of time, and that it is rare for a parent to completely abandon their offspring. Typically, a mother’s watchful eye is not far away. Unfortunately, when humans try to handle or move young animals, parents may not be able to find their offspring, or feel that the humans are too close for comfort to return for their offspring. For more information about what to do if you think you’ve found injured or abandoned wildlife in your neighborhood, visit the LDWF resource guide here: wlf.louisiana.gov/page/injured-orphaned-wildlife Thanks, and continue to stay safe and healthy.
