requires knowing what to do if you find
a baby squirrel in need. Baby squirrels
get into trouble in any number of ways
this time of year. For example, taking

Transport and Rescue Team—Occasionally people find
injured and/or orphaned wildlife and are unable to bring them
to Greenwood. In these cases, volunteers are needed for trans-
