take it to the vet or to a shelter or something! poor thing! it's nice that you want to help it and not just let it die like most would good for you! I wouldn't keep it though.be careful when you try to move it because it will probably be in distress and might bite you (http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t%26amp;ct=res%26amp;鈥?/a> !!!)

It is actually illegal to keep wild animals. You need to turn this squirrel over to a licensed wildlife rehabilitator. You should be able to find one here: http://www.tc.umn.edu/~devo0028/contact.鈥?/a>





Licensed wildlife rehabilitators have the specialized training to care for sick, injured and orphaned wild animals, and they have the required state and federal licenses that allow them to keep the wild animals until they are healthy enough to be released.





They are also free, although they appreciate donations, as they operate as non-profits and foot most of the bills themselves.





Tell you cousin that, even if you just wanted to care for the squirrel until it is well enough to be released, please know that this is probably illegal, as well, unless you have the proper permits to rehabilitate wildlife. ';Wildlife rehabilitation licenses or permits are required to work with most native species, since wildlife is a natural resource and considered the property of the collective people of a state. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service requires federal rehabilitation permits to work with migratory bird species, marine mammals, and species listed under the Endangered Species Act. With very few exceptions,


wildlife agencies require wildlife rehabilitation permits or licenses to rehabilitate wildlife.'; http://www.ewildagain.org/pdf/RecBooklet鈥?/a>
From the description that you posted, it sounds as if the squirrel has broken its back, which is an injury that cannot be fixed. You should call animal control and they will put the animal down. There will be no cost to you, as this is not your pet.
Call animal control, have them make the decision. Don't let it suffer either way.
If it were me and its a Saturday, I would call the non-emergency number for the police and see what they recommend since we don't have public animal control and I'm assuming the squirrel is on a public road. If you do have a public/town animal control, call them! It sounds very hurt and will probably die soon...you can just leave it, as hard as it may be to know its suffering. Don't approach it or you'll just make it scared. You can call private animal control but you may end up paying for a Saturday visit for a dying animal. If you have enough...courage?...to put it down yourself quickly then you can do so...just not by firing a gun nearby houses. I know I couldn't but my hunter friend could.
