- We're responding to a house up ahead here for some type
of animal living under a shed.
So we're gonna meet up with animal control
and see what we can do to help 'em out.
[music playing]
- Hi.
- Hi. How are you?
- Hi, how are you? - Good.
- Good.
- You do?
- Digging up holes.
Eating all my plants.
- Right.
Well, any idea what they are?
I mean, you could have raccoons. You could have
- Yeah, raccoons, or it it could be a groundhog.
- Right.
Could be a groundhog.
- Hopefully no rats or nothing like that.
- Yeah.
No, we had rats before.
Last year right I had--
- Whatever it is, it's dug out a lot of holes in the--
- Did it?
- Yeah, look at the back, all the dirt.
It's all mounded up and stuff.
So I'm guessing maybe a groundhog?
- And you want to be able to staple
it or secure it to the bottom so that they can't get through.
- All right.
Well, thank you very much.
- Have a great day. - All right.
OK. - Thank you.
- Bye-bye.
- Thank you for that. - You're welcome.
Have a good--
- A bunch of baby rabbits under--
- Little, tiny infants?
- Yeah.
- Which house?
This one, the blue? - Right across the street, yeah.
I thought she'd come over.
She wanted to-- oh, is she there?
Yeah. - OK.
I'll go over and talk to her real quick.
- She's on the porch. Yeah.
All right. - OK.
- Thank you so much. - Thank you.
- All right. You're welcome.
Good luck to you.
Apparently we have a lot of critter issues
in the neighborhood today.
So animal control's gonna try to take the bunnies out
so they can survive and grow up to be big bunnies.
So what are we gonna do, Amy?
We gonna--
- So this is actually one of the containers
that we just put the bunnies in, babies.
- Yeah, OK.
- And the babies have to stay warm.
So I actually get hand warmers.
- Yeah.
- And I smack 'em enough so that they get warm.
- Yeah.
- If you feel down in the bunny hole, it's really, really warm.
- Yes, I noticed that.
- Yeah.
Like, it emanated from the hole.
- Yes.
- Need gloves or anything?
- Nope.
Bunnies have no disease that we would
have to worry about as humans.
So it looks like four.
- Oh, yeah.
- Hi, babies.
- So come here, buddy.
Come here. I know.
It's cold.
So if you feel the bunnies, they're
actually really, really warm because Mom has kept them--
- Can I touch them?
- Yes, of course.
- Oh.
- Yeah, they're really warm.
- Hello, sweethearts.
They're so cute.
- They are adorable.
So I just pack them in one by one, keeping
them extremely, extremely warm.
It looks like there's four.
So they'll go down to the Rhode Island Wildlife Rehabilitation
Center in Saunderstown.
- OK.
- Come here, baby.
And they will rehab them.
They'll feed them and take care of them
until they're old enough to be released.
- How old do they look now?
Do you know?
- I would say they're a few weeks old.
- I heard that at three weeks, they start off on their own.
- Yeah, they're really great.
They're cute, cute.
- So adorable.
Wait, wait.
I want to get a picture of it to show
my son because he was sick.
- Yeah.
But they start crying when they get really cold.
So I put him right in.
There's four.
- Oh, sweetheart.
Wait, wait, wait.
- And these bunnies will do really, really well.
- They will?
- Yeah.
- Oh, good.
- So baby season for wildlife roughly starts in March, April
and ends anywhere between July and August.
- Thank you so much.
- You're Welcome.
- Exciting day.
Bunnies. - Yeah, bunnies.
So cute. - Bunnies are great.
They're my favorite.
- They're so adorable.
- Apparently everything is gonna turn out good.
The bunnies have been taken with the animal control.
Hopefully everything will be fine
and they'll release them back to the wild, and a happy ending
to the story.
