So, my neighbor was mowing this afternoon and almost mowed this little guy. He's a boxie, almost 1 1/2" long. Tiny little guy, but just adorable
He brought him to me....sigh. I know he should be outside in the wild, but we've had a real problem with raccoons (4 trapped so far this year) and possums (2 so far this year), and I'm just so afraid between them and the hawks, this guy has less than a good chance of growing up.
I'd like to keep him until he's a bit bigger then release him back into the woods. I can easily make a pen for him and keep him safe till he grows some, but I want to do what's best for him.
Thoughts?
