All County Squirrel Rescue

About All County Squirrel Rescue

All County Squirrel Rescue is a locally focused wildlife rehabilitation organization dedicated to rescuing, caring for, and releasing orphaned or injured squirrels in the Ocala region. While its name suggests specialization, the rescue’s work is rooted in the broader mission of assisting small urban and woodland mammals that often lack resources when they fall into danger. The team aims to provide timely intervention, compassionate shelter, and appropriate veterinary care to ensure that healthy squirrels have a second chance at returning to their natural habitat.

When a baby or injured squirrel is found, All County Squirrel Rescue steps in to stabilize the animal, clean and feed it, and monitor its recovery with veterinary oversight. Emphasis is placed on minimizing stress, following proper protocols, and maintaining a quiet, safe environment to support healing. Once the squirrel has regained strength, coordination, and independence, the rescue coordinates a release back into an appropriate wooded area—ideally near where it was rescued—so it can rejoin the wild under better odds of survival.

Beyond direct care, the organization often provides educational resources to the community. They help people understand how to spot when a squirrel truly needs help (versus when it should be left under its mother’s care), and what first steps to take safely. They may also partner with veterinarians, wildlife agencies, and other rehabilitators to ensure each squirrel receives expert treatment when needed.

What They Offer

• Rescue, stabilization, and rehabilitation of orphaned or injured squirrels

• Veterinary care, feeding, and quiet recovery environments

• Release back to safe, suitable locations once ready
