| 2009-11-23 | Becky | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you Jonathan for your prompt response. It was very helpful and informative. I will contact the AR game warden in my area and see is he has a way of capturing this bobcat. I am an animal lover as well and would hate to see him killed if there is a possibility of babies. Thanks again for you comments. Becky |

| 2009-11-03 | lelia | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Jonathan, Thank you so much for your reply. I thought that you might like to know that I found a vet for "Sqeak" that was willing to take him on. I was able to visit recently and check up on him...he looks great and will be ready for release in the coming weeks. I'm afraid he's been spoiled a bit. The vet's assistant took him home initially (he needed to be fed every two hours) and her kids fell in love with him...he even went to show and tell at school. Nevertheless, I am assured that he will be released soon and that the kid's are okay with it. Thanks again for your timely advice. All the best and keep up the good work, Lelia |

| 2009-10-26 | Andy | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks much for your ti;mely answer as many of us were wondering what these were,\. |
| 2009-10-26 | Kristi | 8 | 9 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks, Dr. Wright. I asked a very strange and vague question, and you provided me with some decent websites where I might be able to get a little more information on my own. Unfortunately, however, the Korean Wildlife Sounds website you refered me to, doesn't actually play any sounds. I've e-mailed them about it, and hopefully they'll fix the error. In the meantime, I guess I'll just continue to puzzle over it. Thanks anyway, for taking the time to try to hunt down an answer... Kristi |

| 2009-10-15 | Jessica | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for your response. I am a bit skeptical about the badger, but you never know, and I have no plans of staking out the hole now that winter is coming (but I'll check it out next summer)! I'm going with either badger or yellow-bellied marmot. Some things I read made it seem like either was possible. I appreciate your help! Jessica |
| 2009-10-09 | Tom Runton | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Many thanks, Jonathan. Very helpful indeed. Nice divesity of advice; all useful for the future. I've noticed more squirrels this year and have not been so good at keeping them under control. Being a countryman and having dealt with them before I do have the necessary 'kit' to be able to control them, but the advice about Pest Controllers is always handy. Very best wishes to you. |

Expertise
I can answer questions about wild mammals, as well as other wild animals. I can also answer questions on extinct animals and zoos. PLEASE DON'T SEND ME ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT PETS. IF YOU ARE REALLY WORRIED, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A VETERINARIAN. PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME THAT UNPAID PEOPLE ON ALLEXPERTS ARE AVAILABLE 24 HOURS A DAY AND WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH ADVICE THE MOMENT YOUR ANIMAL GETS ILL. Find out how to look after a pet before you get it. It is unfair to keep an animal in inappropriate conditions and give it the wrong food. If you can't keep an animal in good conditions, please don't bring it into your home. I'm not a vet and I don't have any expertise in animal medicine and care. I don't agree with people taking animals out of the wild and then expecting other people to give free advice on how to look after them. It is cruel to take animals away from their parents, who are able to look after the babies and may look for them, while putting their other babies at risk. You may need a licence to look after some animals. You may be breaking the law by keeping wild animals; please check with a local wildlife organisation. IF YOU FIND AN INJURED ANIMAL, PLEASE CONTACT A WILDLIFE VETERINARIAN OR CHARITY AND LET TRAINED STAFF LOOK AFTER THE ANIMAL. DO NOT TRY TO LOOK AFTER AN INJURED ANIMAL IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. Please do not remove eggs from nests. The mother birds will know the right temperature for the eggs and will not sit on them if the temperature is warm enough for them to develop naturally. It is illegal to remove eggs of some species and, unless you have an incubator or a broody hen, the egg may not develop. If you are allowed to touch the eggs, you can candle them (check details on websites) to see if the eggs are fertile. If the eggs are not fertile, they will not hatch. I do not agree with fights between different animals. Please do not ask me questions about them.
