If you find a baby chipmunk or groundhog:

If you find an injured baby raccoon, please take the following steps:

If you find a baby chipmunk or groundhog that appears to be injured showing signs of bleeding, shivering, or attacked by a cat or a dog or sick call a Wildlife Rehabilitator immediately. If it appears to be healthy and unharmed, place the baby chipmunk or groundhog in a box with a soft ravel free towel. Chipmunks live in piles of debris, brush or rocks and underground tunnels and groundhogs also live in underground tunnels. So place the box in a spot nearby that looks like this. Cover the box with another box with one end tipped up so the mother can get in and take the baby out. Protect it from the elements (direct sun, rain, or snow etc.), From your house keep an eye on it to see if its mother returns. If the mother does not return within 24 hours call a Wildlife Rehabilitator.

Important note about rescuing wildlife:

It is important to know that wild animals can carry zoonotic diseases that can be harmful to you. If you find any Wildlife that you suspect to be abandoned, in danger, or injured, please call a Wildlife Rescue in your area. Always protect yourself first before attempting to assist any wildlife!

Here are some of the precautionary measures you can take to protect yourself:
• Wear protective (leather or thick vinyl) gloves and eye protection if you must handle wildlife
• Wash your hands well with soap and plenty of water after coming in contact with baby animals
• Avoid contact with baby animals' body fluids and secretions
• Do not handle baby animals that appear to be vomiting or have diarrhea • Do not let stray baby animals come in contact with your other pets
• If you are bitten or scratched, wash the wound with soap and water, and seek medical advice immediately!

The above safety tips are extremely important to remember protect yourself, your family and your pets. Never attempt to assist any Wildlife if there is a danger of you or someone else being injured, scratched or bitten. If you need to place an animal in a box for the mother to come and retrieve them or to transport the animal to a wildlife rehabilitator warm the baby and place a plastic leak proof bottle of warm water wrapped in a towel in the box with the animal. This will help keep the baby warm.

Please do NOT feed or water any wildlife. Feeding or watering a wild animal can be a death sentence for the animal. No wild animal can tolerate cow's milk. In many cases, giving cow's milk can cause fatal digestive problems. Bring the animal to a Wildlife Rehabilitator as soon as possible. Please remember to keep your cat's indoors and remind your neighbors to do the same!
