If you’re worried about a baby animal that seems to be alone, don’t touch it but just watch it from a distance.

The RSPCA’s Cruelty and Advice line NCC receives many calls about young animals from people who think they are orphaned but it’s likely that the parents are nearby, waiting for people to leave.

Read our advice HERE and if you’re sure the animal has been orphaned, call then National Society on 0300 1234 999
