Certified Squirrel Rescuer Saves Baby Squirrel! We were excited to see a white squirrel pup at Peace Learning Center. Unfortunately, while its mama was giving it jumping lessons, it fell out of a tree.  Luckily, the person we called at Eagle Creek Park's Earth Discovery Center was Dawn Van Deman who just happens to be a "certified squirrel rescuer". She rescued this "half white squirrel" and is in process of bringing it to health and releasing it back into the wild. Thank you Dawn! Squirrel Baby is in rehab (food, rest, medicine) and after going to a squirrel cultural assimilation center will be released back into the park. Very cool. We're sure mama squirrel will be very happy, too!
