I was able to save one of two baby squirrels
A bittersweet story about two baby squirrels. I was doing everything I could to give them the best chance to survive. For ten days I had fed them day and night, every two hours. Would they make it?
I had been raising my squirrel friend Aka, who I wanted to have a Squirrel friend. But he had been a lot older when I got him. During the process I kept close contact with the squirrel rescue centre. I kept close contact with my squirrel owner friend whom has been hand raising weak baby squirrels for decades.
They were getting a very special and precise mixture of specially prepared milk to raise squirrels. I even gave the right bacteria to get their digestion working.
I would like to give a big thanks to Marysia for all her knowledge and support and for the many baby squirrels she has saved.
I love reading your comments.

That's a rare species. Not the squirrel, but the human.

So beautifully said

Darn decent of you lie down that squirrel in a bed of flowers.👌

"A little squirrel won't make it. I'm so sorry." Heroes aren't always omnipotent.
I'm a 51 year old man. Bawling my eyes out at the poor little squirrels. I didn't think my day would end this way.
This man is a reminder that there is still hope in humanity
There are some really kind people, don't doubt it
n-nani
this man is a frickin holy soul who deserves recognition.
He reminds me that anyone can be good if they want to. And we shouldnt wait for others
He's got shit in his eye
"i felt he needed to feel the warmth of the sun" "the sun will shine on us again, brother"
Jace Oakwoods why tf are you using Loki’s line
Broooo 😭😭
I hate you (jk) but death is depressing
Jace Oakwoods WHY YOU MAKE ME CRY MAN
It's still too early to hear that and not cry
This man got to be a mother, in a way, without actually being a mother, very impressive.
Same story I had with a baby kitten, less than two weeks old. I was rushing to the dentist and they threw it away at the middle of the street from a car. Diarrhea, growing but not fast enough, it's eyes just opened and I found it dead at the next morning. And buried it. You just can't save all of them. But the important thing is it didn't died alone at cold, and someone took care about it till the last minute. Huge respect!🙏🏻
Just piggybacking on this comment so I can share some tips. A long time ago, a very clever vet told me: diarrhea doesn't kill, dehydration does. I have a lot of experience raising puppies, and it's so so important to get any baby animal enough fluids if they are having diarrhea. The best and fastest way to do this is to administer sub-q fluids - they turn around very quickly when you do this. The second best way is to feed them oral rehydration liquids, like Pedialyte. The easiest way to get this into a baby animal is to tube feed it to them, every few hours, until they stop having diarrhea. The final thing is that most babies who have diarrhea either have it because they have an infection and need antibiotics, or have a high worm load and need to be dewormed. A vet can administer injectable antibiotics or prescribe liquid antibiotics so it's easier to feed. Following this protocol, I have never lost a puppy due to diarrhea in over 10 years. It's more important to get a baby animal hydrated than to get it eating. Get it hydrated first, then deal with the feeding.
he let him feel the sun, he cared for him, HE BURIED HIM IN FLOWER PETALS. you are an angel.
Yes very sad
megan rodger you are so right
I know
Ik...bro i cant even breath rn im gasping
I was crying for at least half an hour it's jest so depressing😭😭😭😭😭
"When I was born, I saw an angel. He visited me everyday and when it was time to sleep, he said that I would wake up in a garden full of flowers and that we would be together again. "
That's so nice
I just got myself under control again but you had to go and write the sweetest thing ever and set me off crying again.
@@magicien233 :o
@@magicien233 I had a lump in my throat too :'(
😭😭😭 so sappy!!!(sad and happy
After you placed him onto the daisies, I thought to myself, "Put some of his nest in there with him. Please put some of his nest in." But you covered him with the pink flowers. Then I started crying and thought to myself, "Beautiful. Just beautiful." Such a short life, but so much love. Thank you.
The fact he can sit there and give them so much love and affection knowing they could die is just beautiful. Theres only rare people like this.
"I wanted him to feel the warmth of the sun at least once" Ohhh my heart... I kinda cried..
I cried a lot.🥺
i kinda cried too
someone cutting onions here!
I freaking bawled, that was such a sweet burial too :'(
@@Br0wnEyedQueen the squirrel passing away immediately made me cry but the burial got me even more!

Had to stop the video for a few minutes, when this amazing loving, caring and compassionate man said he wanted the little one to at least feel the sunshine once.... I started weeping. Sir your karma is absolutely magnificent, our karma is how we treat other living beings. We all need to be the positive changes we want to see in our world.

I had to stop the video several times because I was fighting back tears. The videography, the musical selections, and the editing are all superb. Thank you, Alwyn, for all the hope and warmth you bring to our world.

We, my girldfriend and I, concluded: if only the world could be ruled by people like you, it would all be a better place.
I'd rather not have him a ruler for two reasons : 1. We don't know if he's good at ruling. 2. If he ever becomes the ruler of the world he wouldn't have time to save animals and that would be the real tragedy. : (

The Perfectionist You’re both equally wonderful people
The Perfectionist the video isn’t monetized... and you’re pretty cocky for “the a better hero”
The Perfectionist you are putting yourself above another person because you believe they are doing it just for the money. I do not doubt that you have done good deeds but to complain about someone else’s right or wrong in such a matter, then to claim yourself as a better hero is by definition, cocky.
@The Perfectionist wanting to share the good things you do with the world doesn't mean you do it solely for the money, it doesn't make you any less of a good person. this video isn't even monetized. get your head out of your ass with your superiority complex

Ceylon Blue That wasn’t pessimistic like, at all...
@ Lynn Dirk I totally agree with you.These are my thoughts and feelings exactly, I couldn't of said it better my self!
Ceylon Blue Wouldn’t you rather have men be nice people who save baby animals, then have some men who rape women? Did you know that every school shooter recorded, has been a man? I’ve had trauma with men , so I personally dislike them. Lynn and I should be able to express our opinions. Not once did Lynn mention that ALL men were bad. This argument is pointless, so let’s all get along because KZhead is supposed to be an accepting place. I have respect for all of you and your opinions. Have a good day
Ceylon Blue Also, I’m not sexist what so ever, and you can’t tell me if I am or not because you do not know me.
@Ceylon Blue wow, got a chip on your shoulder? All this back and forth? One key to happiness is not to take everything so personal. Relax, please. It just a compliment to a man who's loving and kind and not looking to pick a fight over every little thing. Maybe use your energy to be kind and not cruel. You basically proved my point.
