I have a red squirrel that was in my yard. One of his hind legs is dragging. He is responsive and eating. I noticed him 3 days ago but was not able to catch him until 2 days ago. His leg does not seem to be getting better. He will let me touch it & I do not feel any broken bones.. Any help would be appreciated. I am prepared for this to possibly be a long term situation. If need I would either keep him indoor or build a nesting box, place it near my house & feed him. He was hiding in a nesting box farther away in my yard. I really want to help him heal. I think he is a younger squirrel probably born spring 2021.
