Lucy

Another one of the local squirrels. This is her ‘Squirrel Studio’ picture from last fall.

I have to admit, I think this is my favorite squirrel right now.

Vital stats

Name:Lucy
Sex:F
Color:Brindle
Age:2 years
Residence:?
Description:Medium build. Has trouble standing straight, ends up standing diagonally to one side.
Breeeding Cond.:Nursing a litter.
Species:S. carolinensis
Notes:This squirrel probably had a run-in with raccoon roundworm. Her impairment level is only slight but she has a tendency to drift to one side a bit when trying to stand still. Also, in the fall she started to get mange, but a little drip of heart-worm medication on her back cleared it up, which allowed her to grow in a thick winter coat to stay warm through our brutal winter.
