    This guy is super cute. Are they cuddly? Or I suppose you try not to bond with the wild animals like pets? Or can they be domesticated?

      This one was found without a mom in the wild, dehydrated and struggling to breathe - she was properly taken care of and will be in an incubator in the nursery (she is that little still!). I am not sure if she will be releasable, but that’s always the goal if possible.

      And to be clear, I’m just posting the pics - I wish I could have rescued this little baby, but I am far away from Costa Rica, where they found her. I just happened to visit this very rescue center during my travels, and now I get their updates on social media. They do amazing work!
