RobertB, I'm so sorry to hear of your misfortune. They tend to be hard to see with their camouflaging abilities and color of their natural surroundings.

The best thing to do for this little one is to treat any discomfort and let him pass comfortably. The easiest way to do this is to apply baby oragel to his entire belly and the wounds. This will relive any pain and put him to sleep.

Very kind of you to consider his feelings .

He will then be at peace. Don't feel too bad as they encounter things in the wild all the time. Comfort and peace are his best option.

Sincerely, Heather

Hugs!
