Feelin’ a bit ‘weasely’
Since 2005, I've been writing monthly tales about the animals that have been cared for at the Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation Center in Morgan Hill. Eagles, owls, hawks, falcons, song and water birds, opossums, bobcats, rabbits, turkey vultures and snakes have been featured. But it took all these years to have a repeat of the very first “Animal of the Month” – a long-tailed weasel. The original was a healthy but hungry six-inch long orphan found abandoned in San Juan Bautista. WERC's latest arrival had a much more inauspicious circumstance: it was caught by a cat in a Gilroy resident's backyard and suffered puncture wounds on his head. It was feared the tussle might have caused grave trauma to the weasel's spinal cord, possibly paralyzing the back legs.
