One of the biggest mistakes well-meaning people make is assuming every baby animal they find has been abandoned. Many mothers leave their babies alone while they search for food. Deer, rabbits, and many birds do this every day. If the baby isn't injured and isn't in immediate danger, the best thing you can often do is watch from a distance and give the parents a chance to return. Sometimes the kindest thing we can do is simply let wildlife be wild.
