Picking them up cause a lot of stress to them and they also become disoriented. Game and Fish is always warning people to not pick them up.
hey is it true that if you pick them up and they pee, they lose water and die from dehydration? I'm not sure where I heard that..
I have heard that too. Not just if you pick them up but if you scare them. Either way, don't pick them up!
We didn't touch it, but there was quite the group gathered around the little one.
South Mountain this morning.
