John and all,
Not many folks are put in the below situation. There are folks who do wildlife
rescue, at least in CA. My partner Cyndi Diekmann is an official Fish and Game
wildlife rescuer. She has an alligator in her bathtub, this is no lie! Her job is
to rehab the rescuees until Fish and Game decides what to do with them if
anything. At the worst they will spend the rest of their life with Cyndi- that is
a great place to be if you are a critter! Fish and Game should be the first phone
call for a situation like this in the USA.
