Hi BullCity, I'm in Lakewood with a squirrel that I think fell from a great height: blood on the road (he wasn't hit we don't think, it was from an overhead tree) and back legs paining him terribly - he has hopped off the road. Can anyone help??? No rescues open right now!
Edit: thank you so much to everyone who reached out with helpful resources! I was able to get in touch with an amazing couple who rehabilitate injured squirrels (they have saved 40 this year alone!!) who came out within 30 mins while I stood guard and kept him in sight. It turned out the poor squirrel was not so injured that he could not run from our attempts to scoop or net him, and despite best efforts at going gently and carefully for an hour so as not to cause unnecessary distress, we eventually lost sight of him in a bamboo thicket in the dark. His head and spine did not appear to be injured, it's his back leg(s) or feet, but based on his movement the rehabilitators thought he has a good chance of surviving. I will put out a dish of water where we last saw him in the morning (was advised not to put out any tonight in case it draws predators) and hope to spot him again since I believe he's one of our yard regulars. There may yet be an opportunity to help! I'm so grateful for the kindness and effort of these incredible people I met tonight, and for everyone here who reached out in my panic!
