During an evening shift one of our Officer's received a call about a possibly injured owl. A member of the public called into OMHS that an owl had been in their backyard for the last six hours. When the Officer arrived at the home they found an injured owl sitting on a pile of wood in the backyard not moving. They examined the owl and noticed that the owl had a swollen eye but no other signs of other injuries. It however could not fly away. The officer brought the owl back to OMHS to see if after the owl rested overnight it would improve . However, there was no improvement in the morning. One of our RVT's examined him the next day and determined the owl was a good candidate for one of our rehab partners. It was transferred to one the next day and will be relased once it is healthy enough!

Field Call Friday! We received an urgent call from the service department of a car dealership when they discovered an animal nest in one of the cars they were working on. Officer Nykoluk rushed to the scene and found a nest under the hood with four healthy baby squirrels inside.
Thanks to the quick thinking of the dealership staff, we were able to contact the car's owner, who kindly invited us to their home to attempt a reunion with the mother squirrel.
Upon arrival, Officer Nykoluk spotted an adult squirrel in a nearby tree, clearly the mother, anxiously responding to her babies' cries. Carefully, Officer Nykoluk placed the box with the baby squirrels on the ground, and the mother squirrel came down, retrieving each baby one by one, taking them to a spare nest she had prepared.
We always strive to reunite baby animals with their mothers whenever possible, as it's the best way to ensure they thrive in the wild! 🌲✨
