Critical patient alert: We received an injured adult Southern Fox Squirrel today. She is in what we call the “best seat of the house,” meaning, our 24-hour oxygen chamber. With emergency care provided, paired with fluids and medications, we are hopeful she survives the night. If stable, she will receive full radiographs in the morning. Please send warm thoughts for this gorgeous squirrel. | St. Francis Wildlife Association

We receive hundreds of orphaned and injured grey squirrels and flying squirrels every year, but a Sherman’s Fox Squirrel — about twice the size of a common grey squirrel — is a rare visitor. This orphan was discovered two weeks ago in a pecan orchard. | St. Francis Wildlife Association

Technically they’re listed as “common” in North Carolina overall… …but on the island? Pretty uncommon. Most folks (us included) have never seen one out here. These giants are almost twice the size of gray squirrels, with those bold color patterns and big fluffy tails that look straight out of a nature documentary. They love longle
