[QUOTE=Handsome Devil;330818]Hi Belle, Thank you for the info. I checked the referral directory on the MD Wildlife Rehabilitators Association website and have plenty of options. It would probably be in the squirrels best interest to go to one of theses places. I'll start calling around at a reasonable hour. Thanks again
you are certainly welcome. if he / she is totally blind, there will not be much of a chance for release; however, there's a squirrel i see every day getting on outside just fine where i live, and he has one eye. if you are not satisfied with what one rehabber tells you [or DNR]- maybe locating another one will put your mind at ease. people do live with them, and i'm not an advoate of 'pet' squirrels, but in certain situations, in the name of 'education' it can be done - and/or if you thought wildlife rehabbing might be something you would be interested in doing at some point.
