Hang a thermometer inside the aquarium to monitor temperature and check for hot spots. Most wild life rehabilitators prefer that you not feed the baby but may ask you to provide emergency rehydrating formula from a veterinarian. Pedialyte may be used in an emergency in which the baby is too weak to survive transportation without it. Even in such a case, veterinary solutions are more successful than pharmacy drinks. Again, do not feed egg, milk, or bread.
Baby animals have delicate intestinal flora suited only for their mother's milk.
Improper introduction of artificial formula will cause diarrhea. Diarrhea can kill an infant animal. Other risks to baby animals are bright light or loud noise from television or stereos. You should not allow household pets to lick the babies because bacteria from their mouths that is not harmful to people is harmful to baby wild animals. If you are lucky enough to be of help to an infant wild animal, please take your role seriously and get the professional help that will make his survival most probable.
