Unfortunately, it looks like we have an outbreak of squirrelpox in the yard 😨 So far, there are at least 2 cases. The first 2 segments of this clip are of an unnamed male who is showing some lesions around his eyes. The right eye is much worse and is almost swollen shut, but I couldn't get a good shot of it on camera. The last segment (which I slowed down a little) is an unnamed female less than a year old. She is just starting to develop some lesions around her eyes, and one on her left pinky.

Our gray squirrel with pox is doing well. He didn't eat for a couple of days but is now eating and gaining weight, and nibbling on the nut balls which contain the supplements to boost his immune system and help him fight the virus. I know he'll feel a lot better when his eyes clear up and he can see. | WEST Wildlife Rehab

These two Eastern Grey Squirrel sisters are recovering from squirrel pox. They will be spending the winter here and are loving their new enrichment toys sent to us by our amazing supporters. Enrichment is important in rehabilitation for them to forage, climb, chew and prevent boredom! These two look highly entertained. 😄 Thank you all for your support. #squirrel #wildliferescue #wildliferehabilitation #enrichment #squirrels @roadsidewildliferehab | Cheryl Aguiar
