If We Don't Help Them, Who Will ?
This adorable little guy (or girl) was found on the ground and
was unable to be returned to the nest. It was first thought to be
a Red Tailed Hawk, but could be a Red Shouldered Hawk. That
won't be determined until it's a bit older. It might be raised by
Rosewolf or sent to be with another hawk so as not to imprint
on humans.

This little guy might not mean too much to some people but to Rosewolf and
it’s supporters it is another precious life that needs us and the hands that
found it. This is a 3-4 week old Northern Flying Squirrel. He came from
Mariposa, seems a woodpecker decided it wanted its Cavity back and started
pulling everyone out. We hope Mom was able to move the rest of the family
safely but this one had been found and taken inside, so it got left behind.
This Cooper's Hawk was hunting birds in a fruit orchard when he got his right
leg tangled in the tree netting. He struggled to free himself and only made
matters worse. We cut him free, took him home, tubed him fluids and put him
down in the mews to see if he could use the leg and toes. We offered him a
meal which he refused. As the photo shows, he was able to use his right leg
and toes so we took him back and set him free. As he flew away, the right leg
hung a little lower but since he may have been hunting for a nest and mate, it
was important to get him back out there.
First Fawns Of The Year
We have mixed emotions as our Fawns start coming in for the new
year. We are sad that these little ones have lost their mothers for one
reason or another but thankful that we can give them a safe place and
maybe the life that was intended for them. This could not be done if it
were not for our faithful volunteers and we are ever so grateful to the
ones that give us the financial support that makes all this possible.

Fawn Handling Instructions
Imagine this, you have an old brush pile and when conditions are
right, you set it on fire. Standing around watching the flames you
notice something moving, running out of the fire, on fire itself.
They thought it was a lizard but it turned out to be this Calif.
Ground Squirrel. Just 4 weeks old, it was touch and go for quite
some time, one ear, tail and toes singed but here he is 6 weeks
later exploring his outdoor pre release cage. He should be
released back into the colony in a couple of weeks.
