August (Gus for short) on the left was Admitted on May 11, 2017 after he and his mom were chased by a dog. The dog grabbed the baby by its neck. We tried to reunite baby with mom but to no success. His wound, however, is healing nicely.
Blossum on the right was Admitted on May 12, 2017 after being found crying alone in a ditch. She was taken to a Vets office in Abbotsford and the Doctor there brought her into Critter Care. She was extremely frightened and panicky but over the course of a couple of days she settled right down with the comfort of the male fawn. She cuddled right up to him.
They are now outside in the fawn enclosure shed until they become stronger. They are given a few minutes of exercise after each feeding where they romp around the fawn enclosure compound. They will eventually be given full freedom in the enclosure once they become more relaxed in their environment.

Critter Care Wildlife Society News
When Annick first travelled from her home in the Netherlands to Critter Care Wildlife Society three years ago, she didn't expect to find something she loved so deeply. Initially, she came to complete a school internship but soon discovered a passion for wildlife rehabilitation that drew her back again. Now, Annick is here once more, working closely with animals and learning important life lessons along the way.
When Tegan Owen began searching for wildlife internships abroad, she had one goal in mind: to gain hands-on experience in animal rescue and rehabilitation. That search led her from her hometown of Sheffield, England, to British Columbia, where she joined Critter Care Wildlife Society as an intern.
At Critter Care Wildlife Society, rescuing orphaned bear cubs is no small task. Emma Robson, Junior Wildlife Supervisor and Head Bear Supervisor, shares the process of how Critter Care steps in to give these vulnerable cubs a second chance at life.
