I am picking up a big squirrel now that was hit by a car seems to have head trauma minimum bleeding. I will post pictures. Just not sure what to give them for head trauma, and the dosage I do have steroids.

standing-by.
Be careful as squirrel may be confused and very defensive (ie biting).

Any updates on the squirrel? Can it walk (legs working)? Any large cuts/obvious fractures? If it seems ok but just has head trauma issues (head tilt, circling, jerky/rapid eye movements, balance issues etc) you should start meds for pain. If you decide to start steroid, let us know weight of squirrel and what steroid you have? We can send you dosage info for steroids and pain meds. Hope he will be alright.:grouphug
