The employee took quick action and brought the cub to the vet to ensure that the cub was unharmed, then recorded the cry to play outside in order to alert the mom.

We recorded the cry of the baby and played it near the tree to get the mom’s attention, we waited patiently until the mom came down for the baby. 

 After a long while, the mother responded and came halfway down the tree to reunite with her baby. She then gave the employee a long (perhaps appreciative) look before slowly making her back up to her canopy.

Most of us have to settle for simple electric fans and shorts. Now imagine living in this heat with a full coat of fur. Yeah, not so easy, is it? Facebook - Jason Minson
Our four-legged, furry companions are the most vulnerable of us during summer. All they can do is pant and drink water to keep cool. 

It’s not hard to see why we’re always told not to keep them inside cars when it’s hot. Well, it seems like we’ve got to remind people some more. Facebook - Jason Minson Virginia resident Jason Minson happened to walk by one very hot car one workday, with a very scared and hot dog inside. 

It wasn’t clear how long the owner was gone, or when they were coming back. Facebook - Jason Minson
What was clear was that the dog had been in there way too long. Judging from its panting and frantic pacing. Jason is an Army veteran, and his day job is that of a landscaper. His workdays usually aren’t this tense or interesting. 

In fact, he’d only found out about the dog in the car after another car almost collided with them. He went over to check and was treated to the sight of this dog panting for its life. Facebook - Jason Minson
He called 911 for help and was told that the police were on the way to help out. Hopefully, that wouldn’t take too long. But with each passing minute, the dog seemed to have a harder and harder time. 

It was like a timer was counting down, and Jason couldn’t just stand there and do nothing. He gave the dog some water, which might have helped it a bit. It drank down every last bit of the water. Then Jason gave it another bottle, and the dog drank it up like it didn’t just have a whole bottle prior. 

This was a very thirsty – and very, very hot dog. Help wasn’t here yet, and the dog’s condition didn’t seem to get any better. It seemed like water only delayed the worst rather than prevented it, and something had to be done. Facebook - Jason Minson
The police told Jason not to break open the car windows. He had little to disagree with originally, but that was several long minutes ago. 

After learning that the dog was heavily dehydrated and not wanting to wait any longer, he finally gave in and smashed the window open. 

The dog was out, and Jason could relax a bit. Sure, smashing open car windows isn’t usually a stress-reliever, but a life was on the line here. Facebook - Jason Minson He could take a breather now. Well, he made the right move as it turned out. The law makes a pretty clear case about breaking open car windows to save distressed animals inside. 

This meant Jason wasn’t to be charged with any crimes. The same couldn’t be said for the owner of the car and dog who left that poor pooch in there. As for the dog, it was treated at a veterinary hospital. Facebook - Jason Minson
Needless to say, it wasn’t going back to its previous owner. Never leave your pets inside the car when it’s hot! 

That coat of fur is a lot hotter than it looks, and panting only does so much. Don’t wait for someone to come and smash your car window while you’re gone. In the meantime, give this article a share and let people know how to treat animals responsibly in the heat.

They explained that unfortunately, she lost her mother after lions attacked her. Through their official Facebook account they usually update the conditions of the animals they care for, Aime (shelter representative) stated: “We have no further updates at this time other than a list of experienced caretakers who continue to look after her, which includes providing food for milk, ensuring she has a warm stable to sleep in at night and a protective ‘mother’ presence during the day,” the caretaker said. 

However, she also ventured to explain a little something that caught the eye of Diria’s precious images: the caregivers’ clothing. “Baby zebras need to be able to recognize their mother from birth to survive. To know her mother’s stripes, a zebra mother often separates herself and her baby from the herd so that the baby can recognize and follow her coat, smell and call. Once the baby can identify its mother, the duo will return to the herd,” said Amie, a representative of the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. “In the wild, calves are raised only by their mother, but in our Reintegration Unit, it’s not practical for a single person to raise one if they go on annual vacation. 

Therefore, to avoid this fragile impression of the newborn on a person, our Guardians wear a specially made striped coat so that Diria will recognize them as her ‘mother’, regardless of who is wearing it. A team of caregivers can provide Diria with the 24/7 specialized care she needs to give her the best chance of survival,” Amie continued. The special clothing helps gain confidence and makes it easier for the animal to adapt, a gesture that is simply beautiful and speaks volumes about the care they take of the species here.

For a man by the name of Allen Pursley, however, what was above his head fell right at his feet. He found a baby squirrel that had fallen out of a nearby tree and the squirrel was so young, his eyes hadn’t even opened. 

Allen knew that he had to do something to help this poor baby. Fortunately for the squirrel, Allen was able to take the squirrel to the vet clinic. 

After checking out the baby squirrel, he was released back to Allen until he could be released into the wild again. Pursley didn’t plan on keeping the squirrel but he formed such a tight bond with him, it was amazing. 

He works from home so he was able to hand feed the squirrel milk and care for him until he started to grow. When he opened his eyes, he saw Allen before he saw anyone else. A beautiful friendship was blossoming. He ended up spending so much time with the squirrel that a space was converted in the closet for him. The squirrel was named Rocky but the nickname ‘Bad Squirrel’ seemed to be used more frequently. Training Rocky was difficult as he wanted to climb the drapes and jump on the countertops. 

Rocky also had a number of other nicknames, including Sweet Squirrel, Squiggidy-Boo and Squirellito. The time came for Rocky to be released back in the wild but he was so tame at this point, he likely would not survive. It seems as if they had found best friends for life. Rocky lives with Allen in their house with a couple of dogs and a cat but they are a little too rough for Rocky. Nobody else can handle him other than Allen. Since they first met, two years have gone by and now Rocky is fully grown. The bond that they have between them has grown stronger. 

An outside home is now being created but Rocky still wants to stay by Pursley’s side at all times. Rocky has his own Instagram page!
