    Unhappy Why doesn’t the squirrel we rescued like me anymore?

    So my family and I rescued a baby squirrel from a raven and now he runs and jumps and crawls all around us and our house. He used to be fine around me he would even fall asleep on me but now he just bites me. I am the only one that he bites out of the 5 people in our house, please help I want to be able to be with him again.

    The wild up, and become territorial.
    The bite the people that they think are trying to get their food, or limit their freedom.
    They have very simple logic... I see food. I want food. I will bite the person and take the food. This person tried to grab me 3 days ago.. I will bite them to remind them not to grab me.
    This will get worse instead of better. Most wind up ultimately biting everyone, including children and pets.
    Which is why, if there is no reason they cannot be released.. they should be released.
