Go Diego Go

OK, so apparently things aren't crazy enough around here!  
 
 
 The girls and I had a little "Diego" action today as we rescued some baby animals that were hanging around their mom who had died (in our backyard) and had a buzzard buzzing around it.  
 
That is actually how we found them.  
 
Hubby noticed the buzzard and I sent him out to investigate...
 
then sent him back to get the dead momma with babies still clinging to her, in a box...
 
*love that man*
 
then into the back of my car so the girlies and I could take them to a local vet who works with a wildlife rescue.  
 
Picture all four girls and myself in my car with the windows rolled down trying not to take a deep breath...
 
it was stinky!!!  
 
We finally made it...


and 7 of the 10 babies are going to make it!


Can you guess what they are?

Oh and afterwards, my rescue buds got a trip to the grocery store to pick out their fav frozen ice cream treats!

Oh boy, do I see trouble ahead!

*grin*

  2. They are so cute. Are they baby opossums?...
    Thank you for rescuing them...all of you.
    Some wouldn't have been so caring for
    what they consider a "nuisance" animal.

  3. Awesome Possums!
    They are considered a pest in New Zealand, though :( Apparently they spread bovine tuberculosis. But I still think they are beautiful, and their population can still be managed humanely. So glad you and the girls were on hand to help them. Thank you, Wildlife Buddies!
