"eating kind of reduces her stress level."
me too, mama squrriel. me too.
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Hahahahahha

I do the same when I'm nervous or anxious.
How cool was that, mom knew she was missing a baby and she knew exactly where to look, way to go mom
This operation is like Trump, bulldozing a black neighbourhood.

She is cutting back her teeth so their not sharp to carry her babies. What a good mama.💕
"they're" jeez!
@@dkazmer2 😅 that was going to irritate your soul if you didn’t correct that!!! lol
@@TerraBerra there's no excuse for that shit if English is your first language.
What? They chew on stuff all day. Why would a few seconds with an acorn cut her teeth back?
@@dkazmer2 Haha! I feel ya! I correct English all day in my head - texts, books, magazines, comments! LOL
I loved how she tucked their feet’s and arms and tail in to carry them. So so cute 🥰
Agree!!!! Such a loving momma.
I can imagine how upset she must feel watching her babies being moved and all she can do is watch and listen to her babies call for her.
that was so cruel 😭
She built that nest with such hardwork. They destroyed her home. Poor squirrel😭
They would have wait For A couple of days
She would have settled down 😔
Was looking For little time from the Cruel Hoomans 🤔😔🇮🇳
@@mollysinha you can’t leave them in places like that because they’ll chew the wiring under that roof and electrocute themselves and start a house fire. It’s very dangerous having squirrels in the house like that.

Why did these house owners move them any way
@@grahamwick2700 i ask me the same..
She’s a stress eater. I relate 😂😂😂
Me too ❤️
Three!
He's all judging her because she's stress eating while she watches them ruin her whole world. I'd hate to know that guy. Zero empathy.
She was trying to make sure her teeth weren't to sharp to carry her babies. Squirrels are very smart
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That squirrel is like,"this motherfrs couldn't wait till next month"
🤣🤣
Agree 100%
agree... sad story of mankind..
@@ladislavsom5096 agree, the mom squirrel is so distressed. They just messed up her whole life in 5 minutes.
I sure hope they settle just as well as they were before. I don't like to see the interference of nursing moms
@@JaneCooper190072 agree 100% . They had a cosy happy home. The have NO idea where she will relocate to or if it is safe. Horrible! !!
Mama certainly made a winter warm nest and I hope her second nest is even better as I watch it start to snow.
This is amazing, glad she found all her babies, and she was able to figure out what to do during the stressful situation, thanks to the acorn.
This comment made me smile. Thanks...I needed that. This video upset me.
I think she's using that acorn to show you what is going to happen to your head unless you give her babies back.
Lol
😂
Very good show of action. Leave my babies alone. Come back after we've left the nest. Give us a break. It's cold outside for my BABIES!!!!!
😝
Im dying lafing
I saw a squirrel nest fall from a tree while walking the dogs. I went back without dogs to make sure the babies were ok. One was snarled up deep in the long grass, so I got it free and left it on the ground in nesting material. I waited to make sure mom would come and get it. They are such great moms!
That mom should bite that woman in her face! Why on the world she disturb them? Can't wait for this animals to grow up and leave?
@@yogaowen8120 Because it's their job, the landlord called them to get it removed. You should ask the landlord why they didn't want to keep them... Not the guys having removal as their job. Also, the landlord would inform you that having "guests" can cause serious damage on the house. Like mold and bugs.. Thats why most people don't keep wild animals living in their house. It's not like they pee outside of the den, they will pee etc inside the wall.
The squirrel was chewing the build materials for a nest. This can eventually cause the house to break down.
tubenshaft yes little things that never get taken care of can grow into major issues.
tubenshaft lol I was thinking the same thing!!!
Good thing mother rechecked her nest to be sure! I feel so sorry for all the wildlife who have to struggle with life in the civilized world. I have a raccoon and two feral cats that share my attic, all males and they are like family and don't fight with one another and are as quiet as ghosts up there. I feed them all and put out fresh water every day, I've been doing this for several years......never had any problems. Walt in Miami Thank you for all you do for little creatures.
You are a very kind person. Thank you for taking care of them.
Walt,
That warmed my heart reading this.
Thank you for sharing. ♡
@ waltman333 - damn kind of you to open up your house like that ✊
If they ever leave your home can become infested with fleas. Fleas prefer racoons but will go to a human host if the animal leaves. This happened to us (the racoons were not welcome I do have to say).
Yes exactly...if there not tearing things up then why not just leave them alone..
I relate to the mom squirrel eating to reduce her nerves. I feel you, momma squirrel. I feel you.
Ahhh listening to the mum trying to Growl of "HUGE PREDATORS" Was So Heart wrenching X
How sweet, the mother was so amazing at retrieving all of her babies!
She had no choice. Some dumb human created an emergency in a snow storm
I NEVER SEEN A BLACK SQUIRREL.... PRETTY. ❤
LISA & THE KOZY KITTY KAMPERVAN I put food and water out every day for all the wild animals and I have 2 beautiful black squirrels that visit daily
Me neither, and yes, I agree - pretty!
1 in every 10,000 squirrels is black.
Cheddah Slammer all the squirrels in my neighborhood are black. It’s even rarer to see a regular grey squirrel.
we dont have squirrels chipmunks bears lions or 🐹Hamsters in OZ 😪 GOVT Knows best here no fun allowed
No one can deny a mother's love and bond for their kids. A mom knows how many babies she's had and I'm thinking that there's still another baby but hidden within the nest and that's why she kept coming back. The babies are precious. I'm glad they're all safe and sound.
Squirrels cannot count. They know wben there are no more. Not how many.
@@shainazion4073 they definitely knows how many babies they had and i also said the same thing out of alot of other parents she kelp coming back like she was missing a baby and who made u think a Squirrel can't figure out how many babies they had
@@missteasababyNo they don’t. Animals can’t count. They just keep coming back to check until they are all gone. That is why it is so often possible to rehome orphan babies with another nursing mother.
@@missteasababy That doesn't mean squirrels can count.
@@gottliebdee263 My squirrel can count
Wow! She knew another baby was missing! Animal instincts.
Very good job! Thank you for being compassionate and letting Mama do due diligence on baby safety and round up. Great work!
All squirrels react to a baby squirrel whistling in alarm. Don't know about suburban squirrels, but in the wild they all start barking and raising general hell when they hear a baby in distress.
This is so cool!! I love nature
That’s stress eating.! Any woman on a diet can relate.! lol
Lol! Absolutely true!❤️🐾
😂😂🤣🤣😘!
Not funny
“Does this acorn make my butt look fat?” 🤪
That is what i was thinking She was stressed ......so food
Squirrels are amazing - Black squirrels are beautiful! Ya'll are so patient
Patient and very steady on that ladder too!!
Patient? You didn't catch the bigger picture. The girl put 4 newborn blind baby squirrels on cold concrete in winter! Patient? They had the audacity to ruin a beautiful animal's family just for the sake of $. Most companies will wait until the cold season is over.
I love them it's just unfortunate they kill red squirrels apparently
🤔
@@Laurenelizo Interesting...
Momma built quite the nest, complete with an awesome amount of insulation to keep her babies warm. Good job momma. I hope your other nest was just as cozy!
I hope she has a protected new nest, since now it’s snowing and cold. I would of waited until the babies left home.
They say squirrels always have at least , three dens so if they lose one like this. Mama will move babies to one of the other home dens
People don't realize it but God made all living things and made ways
that they are born with"in the minds and bodies to survive the places in the world .
@@angelloves5637 sigh
I am not sure why you couldn't leave them I must be missing something
@@schmittyconstanz squirrels in your house can be very destructive besides the feces and urine smell and hopefully it’s not in your clothes you have stored in the attic. That sweater you love is great nesting material. They chew and store nuts and other foods that rot or attract more critters. It can be a nightmare. Have you seen the chipmunks. No singing though
@@elainehenning1387 don't think I was promoting renting an attic to squirrel s.Merely recognizing that sudden displacement for squirrel was cause of disorientation and fear .nowhere did I espouse having squirrels for roommates.
How beautiful is she. So cute babys
This mom is a better mom than some human moms that I've seen. Nice work on the removal guys.
As with every species, there are good mothers and bad ones. Funny how some people love praising wild animals but direct fault towards human mothers but it's funny how these people never say anything negative about wild animal mothers when they abandon or kill their young. Humans are the only species who reserve negativity for their own kind and never toward other species... lol
@@ComputerLearning0 I concur
For you to compare human is so dumb. Dude I feel bad for you you for having bad mother.
Fact: all species have criminals and irresponsible behaviour.
💯💯💯💯❣
There are a lot of humans who eat when they're stressed rather than deal with a problem. That behavior wasn't odd or strange to me at all. I was surprised by how they handled the situation, but I'm glad they waited to come back and forth. Yes, definitely, that squirrel mom was better than some human moms. ❤
She knew how many babies she had!!
Mum Squirrel was like "These insufferable slumlords couldnt even give me a few days notice before evicting me & my newborns in the dead cold of winter? What is this world coming to?"
Fun fact of the day: in Dutch, squirls are called “eekhoorn”, which is pronounced the exact same way as “acorn”
Loved That Fact! Thanku
We have an old stump in our back yard. We had the tree cut down, it was really big and leaning towards the neighbors house. It was also almost dead. Ever since we cut it down, rabbits use the stump for a nest. We always get to see the babies when they grow and come out. I love the baby rabbits! It's been 4yrs and we are just going to let the stump rot away on it's own.
One sad thing..... yesterday as I walked up the driveway, I saw half a baby rabbit. Something ate its front half. Poor little thing. I wanted to cry.
It is and normal behavior. She acted in the situation, Demonstrated, and pretended to eat. This is to make you rather chase her and forget the children. A very brave mother.
Very keen insight
Yeah or its out of stress. humans do that aswell the same reason why we bite our nails when were stressed/nervous, scratch our head when were puzzled and stick our tongue out when were doing a task
I thought maybe she was dulling her teeth to carry the babies without injury...
This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
I just think she needed to refueled herself with energy and that’s why she kept eating the acorn
I once saved 3 baby squirrels. I drove an hour and 30 minutes to make sure they would live. They are very cute 😍. It was worth the drive. I also kissed them on there cute faces. I think there mom was killed by a car so they would of died. I couldn't let then die. I found a box and put what was left of there nest into the box so they can stay warm.
The lady at the animal rescue place was happy that I was willing to make the drive. I will always do whatever it takes to protect these amazing creatures.
Nearly all normal people will help a wild creature. If you have empathy you will put yourself in that creatures shoes.
But yes you went above & beyond the call of duty there! ;-)
Thanks for sharing… We have a 2 year old rescue (and eastern gray). This is fascinating to see their behavior. It’s really interesting to learn how complex squirrels are.
I can never figure out how the "relocation" part doesn't involve just going to the neighbors house...
radiant onion then the neighbour calls and it’s a whole new job. 😊
@@doreenblatz2440 a wise business decision.
Well maybe new neighbors don’t mind. I wouldn’t mind them.
@@nadiabairamis3854 You would when your gutter gets clogged resulting in roof leaks and thousands of dollars in damages.
@@deltahd_265 they were not in the gutter, but behind of it !
She knew she had another baby. That's a momma!!!! I am so glad she came back to check. That would have been heartbreaking!!!
They would have found the 5th one when they removed the nest! It would not have been left.
They can't count. She had no clue. They always come back and check. I just got rid of a nest, and she did the same thing, then I read on a pest control site it's because they can't count. They just keep going till they can't see anymore.
A good and beautiful mother! There are some isolated populations of black Eastern greys down here in West Virginia as well. BTW, mother squirrels will sometimes take on others’ babies. We’ve watched it happen here in our neighbourhood. We take care of our local squirrels and we also rehab. Love these critters!
I appreciate the squirrel removal team was kind to mama squirrel and her babies. Great job all around!
Totally amazing. What a smart mother
I identify with this mama. I’m stress eating while watching this.
Yeah. Stress eating is definitely also a human habit.
Such a beautiful squirrel and good mother
You should consider using a cordless oscillating tool for cutting out siding or drywall especially if live animals are just behind. Less of a chance of injuring them compared to the drywall saw.
Agreed
I love how calm you two talk
A remarkable series of absorbing , heartwarming animal films.
Why not bring down the nesting material to keep them warm, and maybe give her less searching work?
This is a great suggestion. A mother squirrel will always come back for her baby unless it's cold or injured. So if you can keep a baby squirrel warm, she'll come back for it.
I totally 💯 agree , it’s during winter 🥶. !
I hope 🤞 that none of the babies squirrels 🐿 get stolen, by a cat 🐈 or a hawk . I’m happy 😊 she went & double checked . To make sure no baby was left behind , it would have been tragic . If mama squirrel 🐿 didn’t checked , a baby would have died of hunger or freezing 🥶 cold !
Good idea..I did not like that she put them on cold cement !😒🙄
Always complainers... lol
@@ComputerLearning0 yeah, the experts watching a video of actual experts who’ve been doing it for 36 years.
Just about crapped my pants when I saw you using a keyhole saw with a pointed tip cutting into that wood around their nest. I was so hoping that none of the squirrels were injured. Now I have to go back to watching the rest of the video.
For real I was like you guys couldn't have used the multi-tool and made a perfect cut and it would been safe for them
Mother Squirrel: I told you kids to stop making noise, now look what you did.
Smart creature, went back to the old nest to get her one baby that was missing🐿😚💕, different colouring of the squirrels comparing the ones we have in Finland, also that grey one was different kind of grey that we have, they are all so beautiful, love them and i'm feeding them, fun to watch when they climb up in the walls😂😚😘
Thank you for all the work you do. I love critters.❤
i’ve never seen a squirrel like this. so cool to me
Out of curiosity, why? What was the need to remove the nest? Would they be dangerous to the structure?
I find it pointless as you're clearing then only to create a problem to some other neighbour
What the hell are you talkin about? They are a pest they do damage to structures and they are not pets they need to go
People like to get rid of them because of noise, but also because they might have some diseases as well as bugs
The location of the nest, they'll definitely cause a gutter clog leading to roof leaks. Thousands of dollars in damage. If you are willing to let one of the most destructive pests live in an important infrastructure of your home and you are willing to pay the price, go for it.
Why can't people answer questions without being assholes? At least Cheddah Slammer explained it well.
Karla Willis I notice this....people get so upset...when I asked why the seal
And flag hasn’t been at the presidential podium since march13th people jut get angry...
When she was holding the three of them, they were holding her fingers, so cute
It’s already so tough to be a little animal trying to survive, let alone be a little animal trying to protect your babies 🥺💖 glad the house owners chose to have them removed humanely, I wish more people would do the same!!
@justinthor why is it a problem?
They are in Canada different wildlife laws.
@justinthor Jesus dude
Great job security, too; The mama squirrel just moved her babies to the house next door and did the same thing. What a great racket!
I had a mother racoon rip a 3 ft hole in my roof. We weren't home, the house behind me on the hill saw it. She sent her kids to leave a note on my door to tell me I had a hole in my roof. Unfortunately, the mother's escape route was down a tree by the same door. The two met, children screamed and ran, mother racoon freaked and took all the babies back into my house. Other neighbors acted like I was raising racoons that would eat their children. 😒 that's me, putting the cul-de-sac in danger. So the only person I found that would remove racoons was a 75 year old trapper missing 2 fingers on each hand. I was sorry to find out he destroyed the babies. "They'd only rip a hole in somebody else's roof." The mother showed up to look at me pathetically. I really felt bad about it.
Responsible mom. Lucky little babies. Mom will never leave you.
Wat a great intelligence, she kown , countnted how many babies she go. Wonderful nature
I love the way you work!
Dad, you must be so proud of your daughter!!!
Keep on the good work and all the love I can feel.
The mother squirrel was eating the nut to distract you guys. She had a plan “A” and “B”. She was checking you out to see what her next move would be. Also, she needed dinner for that evening. Do you know how hard it is to get food nowadays? She’s very intelligent.
@LittleJoe I mean her babies were left in the wide open to take and a smart mother would normally take them asap if she thinks they could be in danger, when they are in the open theres hundreds of other predators that can swoop in and grab them, which is why he was confused about her actions. Eating a nut and thinking in that situation isnt the smartest move even though you groomed yourself to believe so. %99 of other squirrels made the smart move thats what he was trying to get at if ya didn’t grasp it
Toronto : I was joking. It’s not that serious.
@LittleJoe oh wow man I apologize, that was a pretty long and detailed joke, woops
@@littlejoe9381
I love squirrels, but based on the comment here, a lot of people got triggered by this and I'm still trying to figure out why.
@@TheDarkDresser : It doesn't take much to trigger some people. I just thought some parts of the video were kind of funny.
The mother usually has several nests close by.
I don't know why so many people are giving them a hard time for removing the nest. They handled it very humanely with consideration for the babies and the mother.
WY are they removing the nest.
@@sheypanadoyle46 you can't have wild animals living in your wooden house

Thanks for setting things straight.
I love squirrels as much as they do, maybe even more, but I don't see any harm being done to them here.
Some people thrive on histrionics, so I would be surprised if some weren't actually bawling their eyes out over the whole thing.
They all need to get a grip.
@@265Stan Nope. Come on.
@@265Stan Nope. Come on.
That cracked me up. After she collects 4 of her babies, she knew she was missing one and had to check on that walnut. Good Mama!
Very intelligent little creatures. You both are awesome. Very, thorough, compassionate and caring. Thank you for all your efforts!!
I hope she got all her babies and took them to a really safe place. If it were me, I think I would have waited until the babies were older before disrupting their lives
Now is perfect for them. They have fur to keep them warm and are nursing less frequently, which gives mom more time to find another nesting place. As well as small and young enough for mom to be more able and willing to rescue them. I have rescued many squirrels who were much older with their eyes open where the mother struggled so bad trying to carry, then coach them to follow her and she ended up so exhausted she gave up and left them. Of course there have been plenty of mothers who didnt give up no matter how long it took. But sometimes there are mothers with less experienced or just doesnt have a strong mothering instinct.
Yeah! ME TOO. I wouldn't interfere with the squirrel & babies.
Why did you do that for?
It's not as if the baby squirrels are in danger. You are the danger!
Your actions are highly irresponsible
C’mon. They did their job. I’ve seen people who will bust into wildlife nests to attempt to KEEP baby animals. Leaving them for mom to save was absolutely NOT irresponsible. Considering I rehab baby squirrels, I can tell you from personal experience that they are fine, more than fine. And always much better off with their moms.
Great job guys!
this was awesome :) Seeing the love that the squirrel had for her babies.
Taking them to the neighbor's house. Nice way to gain new customers.
Or somewhere that has nothing to do with humans or their homes. I live in the woods in the PAC NW USA
Pobre madre no encuentra el lugar para sus hijitos. Está desesperada,
😅
And they didn't feel compelled to tell the neighbor... nice.
Of course if they evict the same squirrel on the same day twice, she can sue for harassment.
@@HisWordisLife4U Would she go to Small Claims Court?
Aww sweet mama is so distraught!!! Her babies are out in the open and she's terrified. They are soo cute!! I'm so happy you guys are kind to those sweet fuzzballs!! ❤️
WOW! I mean, really, WOW! I had no idea squirrels were such good moms. I've lived around them in both city and country locations my entire life. I love to watch them and talk to em.
I had a dog, who passed away a couple weeks ago, I miss her so so much and this video reminded me of her.
Gracie, was a "hunter" (back in her glory days. Climb any fence, unlock any crate, scale porch railings. She was so so smart.) and the squirrels would get onto the fence (OUT of reach) or hold onto a trees bark upside down so they could see the ground, and scream, not a normal CHITTER, it I was like a GET OFF MY AREA U MONGREL type chitter, at her lol.
She was old and fat and had no chance of catching one but the squirrels would throw empty nuts and pine cones even tiny prices of wood at her lol. OMG endlessly funny, they would warn all the neighborhood squirrels "Gracie is out!!"
Thanks for the GREAT video, the humane manner u do ur job and the education. Truly.
This is so incredible!! The mother had so many babies!! I love this service for saving trapped animals!! Good humans!!
Mother squirrel last words - the middle finger 😅
I think what you both are doing is awesome. Very nice for people to see how it works. Cool to watch the mothers instincts.
So cute! Love how mama sq. ever so gently positions the youngsters in her mouth for the ride to their new home. Squirrels are so busy....
That’s a good mom. She’s not even in the house they could’ve let her live out the winter then when they babies moved on close it up. I love how she uses the ladder so sweet I hope her second best was safe and warm ❤️
No! That was a rain gutter drain for the verandah. If rain got in, her babies would drown.
so glad you both knew what you were doing and allowed her to go back to check her nest... especially since she had another little one in there. thanks for being caring and respectful
Agree completely. What harm would it have done to allow the babys to mature.
Why not leave them till they get bigger and move on, just like rabbits?
Kathy Ventura because, the rabbits nest is in the grass, so the pee and poop won’t cause mold to grow, and that can rot wood, and these squirrels were in a place with wood, and so their waste would cause mold to grow, which could destroy the wood, which would cost thousands to repair (yes thousands, it’s very expensive) and bring the overall house value down. Bunnies don’t have this problem because they stay outside and never get inside the house (like in the walls) but squirrels can, and squirrels can do a lot of damage. So that’s why.
The homeowners called to have them evicted. The babies can be safely removed at any age.
It’s extremely unsafe for them look at your gay bowser reply (lmaoo)
I know....leave them there
Margarita Mendez nO are you stupid?
I believe Mama 🐿️ was fashioning a shiv with that acorn 🌰. Mama ain't no fool. 😉
She aint leaving any babies behind. And i LOVE it!
She is now in another neighbors house with nest. Will they call you remove that nest and you will get paid for another job. Is that right?
Theresa Love's You Tube because they’re living in someone’s house
Theresa Love's You Tube ask the owner of the house why they called them to remove them.
You act like there isn’t other places for squirrels to make nest it isn’t always a house 🤡
noodle what do you think was there before that house?? TREES!?! Where squirrels lived!!
I don't get it, why not just let them grow up and leave the nest, then seal it off, you've identified the problem and know what to fix. They're not hurting anyone.
Everyone does not think like that lol. That is definitely the correct way to handle the situation tho.
They can cause more damage
How much damage, a day’s worth of salary ? Just have waited 15 days and the family would have moved out themselves. I could nt see half this video. Nobody has a conscience or a kind heart here, what a shame.
@Slim Jim 😹😹😹
@@amitkumarrealtor1 they can create a lot of damage the feces and urine can cause mold and rotting to start and then you have a much more expensive problem. its better to have them removed with harming them.
Kind and excellent job. I like they comforted the babies b4 mom came back to move them to new den. Mom squirrel finally believed them after finding last baby. Smart mama...who like all of us...eats when things get crazy lol 😆
@Gates Wildlife Control you are doing the right thing by relocating mama Squirrel and her three little amigos from the house and into a pine hollow. By watching your videos makes me want to save animals and open up a sanctuary for the rescued ones
Great video. I love squirrels. One of my favourite animals. Great job. Very interesting and informative.
This was so interesting .... and thank you for being so kind to this mother and her babies.
Squirrels are really amazing climbers. Look at her go on the aluminium ladder.
No ...really
I raised 3 baby squirrels once. They were a little older than these; eyes open, fully furred. Their nest fell out of a Douglas fir tree, onto our driveway. I tried putting the nest on top of a shed next to the tree over night, but the mom did not come for them. Then I called wildlife rescue, and was told that Eastern gray squirrels are an invasive species in Oregon, so all they could do was euthanize. So, I learned a lot about squirrels. You haven't lived until an adolescent squirrel jumps on your face.
Why move them? Once they’re gone, just seal it up.
Not up to him. Home owners may not be okay with that
⁉️Could've just waited a few weeks til the babies were old enough to leave on their own. This is unnecessary! The problem would've likely SOLVED ITSELF in a few weeks, without any of this unnecessary stress, separation and expense. Stupid and heartless. My only regret is that I couldn't give 1,000 more dislikes.... 😠👎
@@HighlanderNorth1 yes...I think the homeowner should have had balls and waited. The people who remove them are good people that care about the wildlife.
Yea it seems pretty cold outside. Now they will be exposed to the freezing elements.
@@HighlanderNorth1 I had a problem with a squirrel family! They eat through the walls and all you hearing it scratching and squeaking noises, and once they get through the walls they find a way too get in a try to find food, that’s easier then done to blame the homeowners for being inconsiderate but who wants a wild animal living in their home?
How was she so careful to not cut into the babies? That's amazing to me! So talented at your jobs the both of you! Just found your channel today and I am binge watching a ton of your videos!
Maybe she did. They clearly have no idea what they are doing. Cruel. Dumb. Layed them on the stone...not even the grass. No temporary box. Other removal experts do this better. These two need to find other work.
is this yiur 1st time watching animals? thats how they carry their babies and thats why they thicknfurs, animals without such layer of protection dont carry babies with their mouth
@@Akinwalesegun I think they were asking about her sawing away the wood. I was worried she would chop into one of them.
Can’t believe you couldn’t wait…. So much for understanding Mother Nature…. Being a mom might help
My thoughts exactly! Is waiting a few weeks going to hurt anything?
It’s not their call. If the homeowners want them out they have to get them out. Most places that deal with animal control are exterminators not rescues.
Animal lovers shouldn't be allowed to vote 😂
@@European-Man-88 you shouldn't be allowed to live. The way one treat animals is the way they treat other humans. So careful for what you wish for
Such an awesome mom!! (she didn't leave any babies behind). ❤️ Thank you so much Gates... love your work,
and all your uploads!
So nice to see how she relocates the babies to the next customer's house!
Wow crazy how smart they are
Squirrels are such loving and amazing little animals. She was gorgeous!!
I'm in the tree care industry. I've seen this dozens of times and it's always really cool to watch. We take great care of any babies similar to these awesome business owners 😎👍
Do you build or find a new place overnight for them to live? Yeah, I didn't think so
🐾As an animal rescuer, those rescuers committed a huge mistake on that rescue--they didn't double-check the nest and missed one last squirrel.
🐾Well, for some 30+ experienced rescuers, it's unacceptable!
🐾Thank God, the mama squirrel fixed their mistake and rescued the last one.
🐾LIVING AND LEARNING!
oh shut up 😒
The dad is a more reliable rescuer.
I saw them assume that was the entire nest and even though I am not an animal rescuer, I knew they probably missed one by the way they rushed. Never assume and always double check.
It’s also probably why the mom was so stressed, as one of the babies was gone.
Actually, they commented that because she was so “on them” they hadn’t had an opportunity to do a check before she started removing them. I suspect that’s why the babies were on bare ground, too, rather than on a piece of cloth for warmth, because mama was not waiting on their convenience. 💕🇨🇦
They explain why this happened in the video…
Mother is the real hero of life ❤️
Glad you’re humane in managing the squirrels!💖 🐿 🐿🐿🐿🐿🙌🏻
Why not wait one more month to the babies grow and go ? Later take out the nest.
Exactly. That’s very stupid of them. The babies can’t be with out the mother and the mother will reject them
EXACTLY WHAT I SAY!!!!!!!!!!
@@Cryocide13 They don't need rescuing. From what? Mom just needed to be somewhere else. Squirrels make multiple nests for that very reason-- in case one becomes unsafe/unsuitable. If they did what you suggest, then what? The rescue center releases them? Where? You'd be basically putting the mother in unfamiliar surroundings where she'd have to scope out the territory, make a place among the locals who wouldn't appreciate it, all while trying to make sure her helpless babies aren't taken by a predator while she does all this. They did exactly what was best. Convinced Mom to move, and allowed her to do so and satisfy herself that she had moved them all to safety.
I just wonder if the neighbors are going to be calling these people to THEIR house next week when they realize they are the new squirrel landlords.
@@pocahontasseguinart7099 That's a myth. Squirrels will even adopt other squirrels' babies. They respond to the distress call. Rats do also. That grey probably would have adopted those babies if the people had moved far enough away.
NavvyMom that’s how they make more money. Why not just wait for mom to raise her babies. Then when they all move out. Go in and do these repairs properly instead of cheaply like they’ve done!!!!!!!
It's funny because right around 5:30 she says she thinks there were 5...and she was ultimately correct! I love how the mom was trying to play it cool with the acorn. And then when she moved all the babies on the ground, she revisits the acorn quickly! LOL! But then after she obviously counted her babies, she realized there was one missing ;-).
Why did the need to be removed at all? Why not clear out and secure it after babyseason, so they won't use it again next year?
Great video guys! I'm so glad you were gentle with this little family of squirrels. She had to process her next move and used the acorn to let her concentrate.
I love the way you really care about mommy and her babies
I always thought that birds was making that sound now I know it's baby squirrel 🐿️🥰
